I do things...  Group: Members Posts: 7,809 Joined: 2-December 03 From: Napa, Ca Member No.: 1,413 Region Association: Northern California  |
I had my motor on a milk crate- (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif)
The crate collapsed and shifted, dennting both oil return tubes on one side of the motor. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif) This should put a kink in my 914 fantasy. I am very disappointed. Almost sick. I looking at a tear down to replace these things. No serious damage just very depressing, as the motor was to go in tomorrow... Got the clutch and pressure plate back on though (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif) KT Attached image(s)

No worries. Get a couple of replacement tubes. The usual suspects sell collapsable tubes that you can install without tearing the engine down further.
Hang in there!!!! -Lawrence |
