Soup Posted April 27, 2013 Author Share Posted April 27, 2013 Finally have time to work on the car again. I picked up a new puller and the 1/4-20 bolts. Unfortunately, most likely due to rust, one of the bolts broke off in the pulley - what is the best way to remove it? Alternatively, is there any way to check if the bright link is on the keyway of the crank pulley without pulling the front cover off...?

Xnke Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 I can imagine that the fel-pro will blow out the side too...but on the four that I've changed (including the one when I bought this car), all the fel-pros have failed on #6, pushing the fire ring into the big water jacket hole at the back of the head, one failed on #5 by pushing the fire ring into #6 and burning the gasket out between the two. The nissan-shaped gaskets seem to usually fail out the side under the manifolds, rather than into a water jacket. It's just a generalization, Tony, you know that. Those passages, are they from the Datsun bible? They look familiar... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
