AllrightTTTT!!!! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif)
Thnks you guys! Now I just need to get back down to the garage ...( I just got out of the shower and covered myself with some of that magic orange paste grease remover....) I was working on the exhaust system... Maybe you can help me....the 4 studs holding the exhaust manifold to the heads, were fixed with (heli?)coils ...and only one stud was still in there holding the whole exhaust system, explains the exhaust leak I had... The only stud I have to rely on is this one and iti s 10mn on one sid plus the spring, and 8mn on the other side??!?!?! Is this what I need to replace on the other 3?Is this a factory stud? I need help? Someone? R. |
