Good lord... you need a pressure washer and some detergent. I would have wore gloves and used a respirator to keep shit outta my mouth too. Next on the list: gaskets to repair the oil leaks, lol

ddarkslayer · September 15th, 2010, 07:55 PM

yup I have a leaking rear main seal and oil somehow found its way on to my smog pump and diverter valve

I found out the hard way they'll go on the wrong sides and move your motor forward to the point you can't get your tranny on

.......... wha? I don't remember any markings to go on a specific side

93hatch · September 15th, 2010, 10:35 PM

See in the 2nd pic, the bolt that goes through the k member is offset, if you put them on the wrong sides the bolts sit too far backward and will push the motor forward
