..at the top of the transmission housing where it mates to the engine..
I think I dropped a tin screw in one of those holes (go figure.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) ) So now I'm assuming I need to check to make sure cuz I'm sure it'll be a bad day if it did go in there and I don't get it out... I've never separated a transmission from the engine in the 914. How big of a deal is it? Is anything gonna fly out if I just unbolt all the perimeter bolts around the edge? sigh... |

Engine and Trans are out of the car up on a stand.. was re-installing some tin pieces today and had the "baggie" of my screws sitting on top of the tranny. Took it out of the bag and wouldn't you know it? of all the places it falls into the hole in the top...
dirty is right!! I've been using everything to try to get this thing clean.. brake cleaner, degreaser, screwdriver, wire brush... stuff is hard as a rock and thick.... I don't even really know what it is. It's either CV axle grease, oil, or some type of "undercoating"... Engine leaked pretty badly from the pushrod tubes (already fixed) so I'm assuming it's many years of caked on oil spraying... damn PO's... |
