Not sure why, but there's clearly a sl. amount of raw gasoline lying atop the secondary butterflies, tho' the car never started. arggggh. s
Well I was afraid of that. Although, on the bright side, I told my daughter, who is in her second year of dental school, that I was helping a Texas gynecologist with bad teeth, and she was quite interested... for a moment, at least. OK, if you're going to replace the flywheel, or at least the gear around it, you might as well replace the pressure plate, driven disk, TOB, and pilot bushing, if they all have 15 years on them. Well, bright and early tomorrow, lets start pulling the seats and tunnel. Did you pull the N/S valve out of the secondary side as well, in order to put a dab of Vaseline on the O-ring? Or did you only do that on the primary side (which now appears to be fixed).
