Sounds about right. There's one bolt that is *very* tough...so tough, some people have made new wrenches to reach it. Can't recall who, off hand. It might be easier to pull the whole manifold. _________________ Blake Qualley

Yes. Are you sure it's not just baked onto one other the other? _________________ Blake Qualley

So there is one gasket that should be there then? In that case I better try and get it off the manifold, becuase it definitly was not on the Carbureator
Thanks for the help guys. _________________ Only he is truly lost when he gives himself up for lost |
