Well I got the exhaust manifold off and timing belt cover. Noticed when I took the timing belt cover off that either the oil pump seal is leaking, or the front crank seal. Either way both will get replaced as Im kinda doing a mini rebuild depending on what I find once I get the head removed. _________________ Free to list! Free to sell!  |

I highly recomend addressing the cranck where the seal is, make sure it is clean and smooth. If you could find one a speedy sleave works well for getting rid of that seal groove. _________________ <div>I had to stop driving, My tire started to get Dizzy</div><br> |

Made some progress last night,thanks to some blue moon beer for keeping me comfy.
Valves, right one is 1/4 inch out of its seat.
Cylinder walls look good but will need a hone job and I will measure to see where they are at.
Progress is progress _________________ Free to list! Free to sell!  |

Was pretty easy if it wasnt lifted I could have just lifted up the block myself. Damn light but with a bad, leg I decided I didnt need a bad back to go with it. lol (I also made my electronic hoist mobile!) _________________ Free to list! Free to sell!  |

Oven cleaner works but is nasty on the lungs. I would just use gunk out. _________________ <div>Zuki. It keeps you from becoming street rat crazy!<br><br></div> |
