david wrote....Good evening all,
I have taken out the tired rear spring out of the spit and almost ready to
put the replacement in ( looks really nice blasted and painted :-) ). One
small concern I have is about the studs on top of the diff. How do I seat
them to make sure they are in the diff correctly?
I used the double nut method to get them off, does this also work to put
them back on, this time tightening down on the top nut?
Also, I have a question about Angelo's question about restoring the leather
seats in his car. Could you not use saddle soap and mink oil? I mean I
have used this combination on my boots and lots of people use it on saddles.
Just a question, I really don't want to start a debate on this.
I just started the spit after it sitting idle for 36 hours and it seems to
take 2-3 minutes of cranking before she will start. Is this okay for a 6
cyl ( GT6 or TR6 people? ). Or is there something I need/could check?
Thanks and regards

hi David.... as far as 2-3 min cranking ove,r to start the 6 goes..
every morning i get in my gt6... it takes a bit of cranking to to get it
to kick...
which i don't really mind, because the idea of the oil pump getting some
oil
moving around to lube everthing before it starts.. is a good idea......
along with that thinking... i always start it, with the tranny in nuetral
,and my foot
off of the clutch pedal.. i don't want the clutch putting preasure on the
cranks
thrust washers, before oil gets to them....
i find that it starts better when i crank it for about 10- 15 seconds
first without
choke.... then i pull out the choke and crank it again. after about 5-10
seconds,
it usually starts
