Bottom plugs

(1/1)

lightning boy:
17080204 Bottom of main body. upon teardown if there is a crusty, gooey mess around the front plugs, is that evidence they are leaking?

also what is the procedure to re-install broken dowel pins on the lower part of the main body?

thanks guys!

Cliff Ruggles:
Clean off the mess and pressure test the casting as described in my book.  It's the only reliable method to determine if bottom plugs are leaking.

I also describe how to align the baseplate to the main body when the alignment pins are missing......Cliff

Thank you Cliff!
