Hello all!
While I'm pulling out my tranny for a Dr. Evil's clinic next month, I'm going to try to track down an exhaust lead as well. I'm going to pull my heat exchanges and give 'em the file dress down as a start and look for gaping holes of course. My question is which copper gaskets do I need to use? I have a 1.8, but the heat exhangers are from a 2.0. Do I match the engine, or the heat exchanger? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Thanks! |

thanks Capn...I'd have to agree on the deformed self locking nuts...I have pulled one HE...two bolts broke right at the head and two unscrewed at the engine end, so the whole stud came off. Of course, not a speck of carbon on the HE when it saw the light of day.
other side is still on...one freakin' nut that I can't get to as my socket are too thick-walled, but two did come out with the stud attached, one actually came off as god intended. Gee, this job just got even bigger... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |
