Ed,
I hadn't considered the pucker factor, but that's a good point. When I do
finally fly, I'll stay within gliding distance of the airport for awhile,
though with a problem like that, cutting the engine off, and gliding in,
isn't very high on my list of things to do. Not to mention having to
fumigate the plane afterwards.

Thanks John. Looks like you are taking allot of abuse from Rusty over
this
turbo. Looks also like I'll be replacing the water pump. I had removed
it,
checked it and reinstalled it while building up the engine. Has worked
perfect up until today. All of the sudden it is leaking coolant with any
pressure at all on the system. Leaking around the shaft. Oh well, better
now than later, with out a doubt.

That's the right attitude, Steve. I always say that ANYTHING! that wants to
break while I am on the ground is just fine with me and fortunately (thus
far) they have seen fit to do just that. Sure reduces the pucker factor.
