okay....last weekend my car would crap four quarter-sized puddles of tranny oil....
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/mad.gif) so i go today to FLAPS to see about getting some O-rings....(it's like a quart or so low) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/yawn.gif) find them, bought a gallon of tranny oil to top it off with....go to undo the speedo drive and.... SPLAT! goes a full Trinity Shamrocks cup full of tranny fluid. excellent (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ar15.gif) ok...i find a o-ring that fits...put the speedo drive back in and...huh? what's that wire thing coming out of the bolt to tighten the sender down??? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ar15.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ar15.gif) The helicoil broke.....and the bolt is a gonner. *SIGH* go in and buy the helicoil repair kit...i have like no money left. and go out and begin tapping the hole and putting in the helicoil insert in like 25 degree weather...it lasted two hours. but its back, and the helicoil was fun....once it worked. pictures will come tomorrow. b |
