This is a test. Ken ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 26 Sep 1997 18:11:17 -0600 From: Andy Montebello Subject: Flathead The list has been very quiet so I thought I would try it. I will be replacing the water pump on my 1950 F-1 and I'm worried about the bolt inside the water pump. Anyone have any experience? Will it be rusted and hard to remove or will I be pleasantly surprised? If difficult, should I use an impact wrench with the air pressure turned way down? Or????????? Thanks, Andy ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 26 Sep 1997 19:38:21 -0400 From: "Lee Hardy" Subject: dead list Hi Ken: 60 and older list lives. Radical drop from 79 and down, though. As more people are aware of it, I am sure it will grow rapidly. Probably will have to be reminded of to me on demand the 79 and down list? Do I list it as a favorite? Thanks, Lee ( I can build a hell of a flathead engine, , but am computer illiterate) ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 26 Sep 1997 22:08:17 -0400 (EDT) From: TNickolson Subject: Re: Flathead Chances are it will be rusted. You can hope the bolt head is completely rusted off, and that will solve your problem. Look at the bolt head first and see which will fit better, either a 12 point or a 6 point socket and try that very slowly. I would not use something that might spin the head off. Your last resort, and probably the method you will use, is to drill hole in the remaining bolt and use a good easy out bit to remove the remaining bolt peice. The peice of the bolt that is remaining in the engine will be hard and the easy out will grab. I also suggest that you retap the old bolt holes and use a non harding gasket sealer when you reinstall the new water pump. Let me know if this works.
