I pulled this 1.7 I've been flogging to do a clutch job. It's got to last me another year or so until the six is ready. It's always run hot (I've put about 3,000 miles on it since I brought it home). While I have it out for the clutch work (Oh yah, and the turbo) I thought I better pull the tin off and make sure it's all debris-free in there because if it was hot before, it's going to be h3ll under boost (about 8-9psi max. I'm crazy, but I haven't lost ALL sense of reality).

Gee.... Do ya think there was a problem?
