Most of the stock Ts run low 14s with a bit of a tickle hi 13s is a given the LTD in full flight less the Zorst and spare on a good day low 14s or hi 13s wouldn"t be unreasonable Stu
![]() ![]() Meanwhile back in the XR just took a couple of shots of the water blasting inside the water pump, quite surprising considering it only has 100000ks on it and always had fresh coolant,almost looks like it may have had casting sand left behind and has blasted the coating off . ![]() And just for for future reference The 3 medium size bolts from the water pump fit the harmonic balance threads to fit the puller on with the main balancer bolt undone 2/3 s of the way its a easy removal with just the thermo fans taken out, ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()
