Got the pig back togeather, removed the H/V pump and installed a new one and thrust plate. She fires up and drives AWESOME :3gears: :3gears: :3gears: ... Alittle detionation, but thats easy to fix. But the F#$*+!G timming cover is still leaking!!! :af: :af: :af: So, what to do... My new TA cover is on its way, and the wife is short $400 for the new dining set. OOPS ou: ou: ou: . I am so fed up with chasing this thing (leak). Hope the new cover fixes it. Im glad I did not order rims yesterday. Fixed the HV oil pump problem, got a new pump and thrust plate from NAPA. Now it will go into a nice shiney new TA cover. Guess the supercharger fix for my Tacoma will have to wait... :ball: Any hoo, I have heard that the TA piece is a work of art, never seen one. But I will try to post pics for those who are like me (never seen one). Got their billet water pump and crank pullies, on very nice. Now I guess the next step is aluminum heads... maybe after Iraq.
