Drilling pins

[Eric Huppert]

Jay,

 

Just went and looked at the flywheel I recently replaced due to ring gear
tooth missing. The backside of the hole is covered by the ring gear, so
punching through is not an option! Personally I would pull the flywheel.
Yes, I know how much of a PITA that is, just did it! 

 

You'd probably have better luck finding someone with a Bridgeport or good
drill press and bits that will work with a hardened pin! (Hand drill is a
little dicey in that situation!) 

 

As for welding a pin/plate in.. You'd have to be dead on, not much tolerance
clearance wise to the sensor.

 

Nice to see Audifans is back up! Pretty much figured out that the run of the
mill issues receive no attention on some of the other forums. Only get
responses about big turbos and pie in the sky issues!
