M10 Rebuild Part 28 (Water Pump and Oil Filter Housing)
99% Complete
This project needs a few fiddly bits and then I can Bring It on Home to Me* at Gray's 02 Garage 10 miles away: an oil drain plug, some oil poured over the valve train and into the TC tensioner pocket, a VC gasket, tape over all openings, and installation of a JB Racing lightweight flywheel.
So far I have 27 pages of rebuild notes and instruction accumulated while doing everything myself (certainly none of the machine work) under the watchful eye, tutelage, experience, and patience of my machinist, Mike Yust, at Zakira's Garage. I sincerely thank Mike, Brandon, Chris, and the other automotive experts at Zakira's for their patience, for putting up with me and my questions, and for (occasionally) laughing at my bad jokes.
Rich and Bob, whatchatink?
