The last 2 posts gave me a little chuckle. First off, unless something is in the process of failing there is no metal to metal contact within an engine. Only exception I can think of might be the ring during the first few runs on a brand new engine when the high spots are being polished off. otherwise all moving parts have a thin film of oil.
Yes there is no substatute for experience is there Mr. Hicks? Maybe unless it goes against your opinion LOL
Not sure where you're coming from (experience?), but my point best taken as there's no point in arguing if you're both right? It's recognizing there are different ways of doing something, and that you're way isn't necessarily the only way?
