Good to know, it was definetly suggested before as a possible fix. Disconnecting the actuator and removing the play with some j b weld, like you suggest may be the best short term solution. Or do you think the epoxy would allow it to stay operational?


No it will not fix it ...Not to be a jerk ...But your playing with fire and your going to loose and get burned...The ONLY way this can be fixed is to pull the top end off ,,Sorry ... I've fixed a dozen of them over the years ..Its easy for a good machinst to do in know time...Of all the motors on the planet this is one of them that you dont want to have it frag on you .. Cost and finding the parts are just two hard ..You have two things that are going to bite you in the back side..The belt maybe bad and the butterflys ..And you know Doug what will happen if ether one of these lets loose...You have been around here sents 01... I would trade you one of my fixed manifolds for your bad one so you would have less down time ..But there out on loan for a motor mock up ..(TT motor in a airplane,,lol..).. Maybe someone can loan you one to get fix so you have less down time ..??

Sorry on the rant and all ..I'll shut up now ... Its just hard do to my job to deal with the "mind set" some times ..Sorry.. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />..
