This doesn't look good
« on: January 16 2012, 08:53:22 PM »
I grabbed the oil cooler puck to pull the old oring out, and remove the lines, as I just ordered new cooler lines from NOS4GN.

I noticed the spring "carrier" for the relief looked bent - looks like it got tweaked/banged or something.

Sigh.. Anyone gotta spare puck?  :068:

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.
