    Also check if it's single or double wall construction? If you have a scrap see if there's cotton threads in it. (double wall is needed to resist vaccum)

    a/c not blowing??? help?

    Could try one from a junkyard? Also if it's low on gas it will shut off so that's another thing to check.

    "Pretty sure" run it with the cap off and see if there's a difference..... The whine could be the pump cavitating due to the vaccum created when the hose collapses.

    What's the difference between pre 89 and post 89 engine block?

    Marc: NA or GTE? NA's got the thick block earlier for some odd reason.

    Which leads me to believe it's the wrong hose..... If the screen is clear check that the vents in the lid aren't blocked.

    Thrust Washer for R154

    It's an ugly/cheap/fast way to make parts and this is why I think a piece of good setter ie: EN26 would work very well for this part and why I'd suggest Ti Niteride coating for wear resistance while keeping the core soft enough to not break. Side story: Many years ago I have a 350 4stroke...

    Thrust Washer for R154

    Syris: Ummm they're NOT failing from lubrication issues. Even micropolished they're still have an open grain structure with little to no core strength seeing that it's a sintered part. If the Trans was rebuilt paying close attention to end float on all the gears the stock part should be...

    Thrust Washer for R154

    It's sintered metal so WON'T handle impact loads without shattering....

    So, how about a titanium thrust washer?

    Poodles: That's exactly what I meant by impact loads. I think/feel this is why Duane can run huge HP through his without failure because his trans is tight enough so the gear can't get a run up and smash into the thrust so it's only seeing a compression load and not an impact.
