Why dont you just spray a little WD-40 on em to keep em from rusting?

So rick has inspected my parts. The rear oil regulators that I gave him were both bad. One was about 110psi and the other was 72psi relief pressure.



He says one is probably a very worn turbo version, and the other is a non turbo version. So now I've got to buy another one of those. The front oil regulator spring was 2mm shy of being acceptable. I now have a laundry list of parts to buy that didn't meet his standard.



He also wants to modify my water pump and thermostat...this could be interesting.
