Went turkey and fixins shopping today. Got home and noticed oil burning smell. Washed and polished the new paint and noticed a puddle of oil underneath. Oil dripping out the flywheel inspection hole. Half a pint maybe. Not a big deal, but it is my daily driver. I have a running 1.8 with dual 34s in a wrecked car. Plan is to remove 1.8, remove carbs, install a freshly painted set of 1.7 tins, plenum, and runners, move my fi items, minus ecu and mps, and install in my car. I'll have three days, and Brian, my right hand. I think we can do it. Won't be able to get started till Friday. Has to be done by next Monday. Can I do it?
Btw, it's a 2056, raby 9550 cam, with 70 plus thousand. It's definitely time for a refresh. |

If'n it were me, I would just pull the tranny and replace the seal, out the tranny back in, unless you wanted to pull the engine anyways in prep from the rebuild.
