Werks Questions
#1
First: What is that blue rubberish coated washer for?

Second: Is it normal for there to be about an 1/8 of an inch of play foreward and back along the crank? (It slides that distance foreward and back.)

Third: No Glowplug??? What should I run....

the blue washer is a dust shield for the front bearing it is a spare. the play is normal that will go away once the flywheel is on just make sure u pull it forward when u put that stuff on there, all motors have this. Plug OD99 MC9 RB6 medium plugs mostly

You'll know when to change the seal when the motor starts leaking fuel from the front bearing.

About what I figured. Didn't know if people were having them go out consistantly at a certain point or not though. And Mike, you reccomended a few plugs, which would/do you run?

Mike, have you noticed any advantages of switching to the turbo? I was thinking about it when I read Tom Wolf switched over.

Dan, run the Werks 2013 pipe.

Are the OD99's easier to get now, they seemed hard to get a while back.
