I have a '73 1.7L that I just got and figured I should tune it up first so I know what i have. I set the spacing between the valve adn the adjusting screw based on the instructions on the bird. My only problem was that there was no way I was going to get the job done with the heat exchangers done. So I took them off, but they are a mess. 5 of the 8 times the exhaust stud came with the nut. one sheared in half. I don't thing there were gastets between the head and the heat exchangers either. SImilar to Jay in another thread.
Does anyone have a part number? I couldn't find anything at the bird or Mr'. Raby's site. I'd like to get this thing running, and still have the spark plugs and CHT gauge for DD to install this weekend. Any advice on removing the studs that the nut came off of only, as well as the sheared one? I tried an easy out, and PB blast with no real success on the sheared one. Thanks, Mark |
