SILVER Star
Ok, so I'm just about done, and I must say it really wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. It took me forever because I had to keep looking at my laptop at my cheapskate digital FSM. Gotta get a paper copy before anything major.
On to my help issue...
I'm using the silicone hose and constant tension clamps and I can't tell if I have the dang things tight enough. I looked through an old thread about overtightening these things, but nobody ever posted up a definitive answer about how tight is tight. The torque wrench idea doesn't really help, because they just seem to stay at the same torque all the time. I'm using a short 1/4 inch socket wrench with almost know leverage and I can just crank and crank.
I'll load up some pictures in a minute. Any ideas? I had to take the top of the tranny dipstick out to get to things. Must have been the Popeye forearms. Anyway, I'd love to not have to tear it all apart again after I put everything back together.
Thanks,
Steve
