I checked the wheel and surrounding areas, no luck

going to take the wheel of this weekend but who knows

[cyberkaa]

do you have a big piece of plastic stuck on your tire? check if the wheel well trim is loose.

EDIT: post 9001 in this thread! it's over 9000, etc

w00t!

[Pantless Spency]

Anyone have any 17" tires they don't want? Ideally 205/45 but something close to that could work.

[kronus]

i've got three flatspotted star specs in 215/45, pay dismount and they're yours. frankly they're trash

I'm assuming the bounce/vibration is fairly noticeable, right?

[kronus]

probably. I've only driven our race truck on them, and it's so noisy it covers up any tire vibration they might have.

[Vivek]

Maybe if I do enough burnouts it'll be unnoticeable . I'll have to pass, but thanks for the offer.

[kronus]

no take my trash away damn you

[Vivek]

I'll take em for free.

Cary, your not worried about rust ripping apart the rings, if block is running studs or bolts and valves rusted closed and open?

Unless the HG is blown, shouldn't be rust inside the cylinder, unless it sat outside this whole time... Also that's why I say pour some oil in the spark plug hole, let sit, and rotate crank by hand. My s52 sat for over 10 yrs, followed my procedure and motor is strong!
