I was going to go that route to but the auto parts guy says there might be a better way to make a hose than that for the cover.We will see soon enough if hes right.

He meant that a AN hose prolly isn't the best way to do it.I shall see what he has in mind.

Now this swap is getting to me.I went to drill a hole a bit further up the shifter rod and the drill bit breaks.OK, then I goto to get the T2 front cover off to bring it to the auto parts place and went to get the pulley bolt off and loosen the flywheel nut instead.

Damn the T2 motor.My old SE pulley bolt poped off after some motivation why the hell doesn't this one.ARG!

A vicegrip worked fine. They came out with some twisting and WD40. I hit them with a wirewheel and now they're all shiny with a few deep grooves in them from the teeth of the vicegrip. A little file action and they won't bind or go out of round when I tap them back into the front plate.
