Rusty, Mark
I have access
to the equipment to perform a Rockwell Hardness test. If you want you
can send the old seals to me and I could have the test run the
day after I receive them. Let me know .
Hi
Bob,
If Ed wants
to send a piece of his broken seal, I'm certainly game to send one of my
seals also. I'm not really sure what we'll prove by this, other than
finding out if Ed's seal was sub-Hurley-standard hardness. We don't know
what hardness is required, or desired, so having a figure for the standard
Hurley wouldn't seem to serve any purpose to
me.
BTW Ed, I
would absolutely not install those odd plugs until you get home. It
certainly sounds like they weren't hitting anything, but do you know that the
ground electrode wasn't glowing red, and causing pre-ignition, or causing some
other odd problem that we don't understand? Even if you don't believe
those plugs will cause any problems at all, why take even a slight chance until
you get home and can circle your own field for testing?
Rusty
