    New oil pump rotor?

    Thanks Kevin, just a slight leak in the cover. I'll just repalce the seal, lap the cover and reinstall. I want to replace the stock screws with the torx type I saw another thread (think it was landTank?), but having difficulty finding them. Thought Mcmaster would have them, but can't seem to...

    New oil pump rotor?

    Okay, "in there" meaning the cramped space between radiator and motor...obviously not to the level of what you consider "in there" CJF. A better term that may be to your liking would be: "the cramped space between the radiator and motor". Your input on replacing the OP rotor set would also be...

    New oil pump rotor?

    About to install my new blue fan clutch (modified with 7000 cst oil) and belts. Figured I might as well attend to other items while in there, so I'll check the WP, replace the a/c idler bearing, alt. idler pulley, front crank seal and OP seal. Regarding the OP, a new rotor set runs about $25...

    Extreme cold greater chance of blown head gasket?

    Thanks for the input folks. I am still concerned, but at least I should be able to get some sleep tonight. My son has put very little mileage on the Cruiser the last few years (our third vehicle), so I rarely checked in on the forum and actually had forgotten about the head gasket issue (out...

    Extreme cold greater chance of blown head gasket?

    Hi all, Long time member but rarely post. I did a search on this topic but couldn't find anything, sorry if it is a repetitive post. My son drove our '97 Cruiser (170K miles on her) up to Killington, VT today for a 4 day ski trip. I just checked the weather forecast and it is supposed to...

    Planning for front end service

    Thanks for the heads-up -B-. You just saved me some major headaches (assuming the indexing ring hasn't already come loose...if it has, at least I'll know how to deal with it). Great work by Riley and Simon, along with some creative thinking by others in the forum. BTW, I plan on replacing...

    Planning for front end service

    All, Planning to do front end service shortly after my FSM comes in. I know from past experiences that the FSM is a critical part to doing the job right, but not the only one, so any words of wisdom you folks can add are greatly appreciated. Paul '97 Collector's Ed
