Re: Question about timing hole plug on the tranny...

[Kevin <aventari@cts.com>]

yeah timing belt cover is a given! I dont have an upper, lower or side
cover for mine :) It looks so much better!

I dont like leaks either, but sometime ya cant help it. I just put a
windage tray w/ rubber gasket for the oil pan to stop the oil pan leak I
had, and getting those 2 tranny side bolts is a BITCH! I got em off, but
when I put them back on, the aluminum seal carrier stripped out on one of
the inside ones! AARRGGHH! If it leaks I'm going to have to drop the tranny
and put in a new rear main seal carrier... this sucks.
