    CHANGED hg, fixed valves, no start.

    MAFT Install write up mistake

    Broken VSV conector :(

    Which one? The front or the rear one? In any case, you can't really hook either one to vacuum direct.

    Shift boot options

    Seriously, take the boot out, take it to ANYONE who can sew, even with the most basic skills. I've made these myself, they are that easy.

    Help me get my way!!!!
