fixed my oil leak

[prgrss]

damn oil pan bolt fell out at the track. i checked them all and they were all slightly loose. i'm guessing the one that fell out was really loose to begin with which caused the original leak and then when it fell out it got a lot worse... dur...

hopefully it doesn't spring up on me again... hah... get it... spring up like spring a leak! hah!

anyhow i ordered a new bolt at cyclesnorks for 2.99 and then cruized on over to cycleparts and the dude in the shop was like... "uhhh... try this" and handed me what i needed fo' free!

have you ever been snorked before?[blonde]

:kfc:

that's why Rod and crew kick ass.



use some thread locker when you put the bolts back on. helps keep them from backing out

was it torqued right to begin with?

probably not. that's something i really need to invest in... a couple nice torque wrenches. those things are spec'd in inch-pounds too. so i gotta get a small torque wrench.

cool...!! those things have a useable range that is between 20 and 80 percent of their range!! so for sure will be a smaller one.. ask me how i know, lol...

glad you got it taken care of
