Oh trust me.. I'm listening.

Whats aggravating is that to FIX the original end play problem I listened to someone else who was supposed to be an authority as well. I cant remember for sure at this point who it was, so the name is besides the point. Its my mistake and my engine and I'm taking ownership of it.

And.. for what its worth is there ANY way that this could have caused a coolant leak (separation of housings, etc..?)
