What's up everyone, so we got the gas leak worked out as far as I know, the hole where you can plug in a gauge was leaking somehow even though it had a stopper in it. There was a little oil coming from the driver side tranny where the axle plugs in, has anyone ever heard of those tranny seals needing replaced???? I've done axles more than a few times and have never had this problem before. Also the wastegate was venting when it was at idle, its supposed to be closed until boost pressure for the spring is reached correct?? Also has anyone ever heard of needing two springs in the wastegate??? Today I'm going to do another valve adjustment and try to fix the oil leak and hopefully take her for a drive around the block, we'll see how far I get. I'll update with anything new tonight.

Kinda, I've got a lot to do before I'll feel good about really getting on her and seeing what she can do.

A little update, not much. There is an oil leak looking to come from the crank seal, everything else seems fine when it starts. We will be replacing it next weekend, and hopefully that is all for leaks!!! Will report more as it comes.
