Filling EGR port on my 12A
#1
I'm moving this discussion from Ncrosses build thread so as to not hijack his thread any longer. I took the advice on that thread and bought this stuff: And, I need to put it in THIS EGR port on my replacement engine which is already assembled.
If I try to sand out the paint so that it will attach correctly, I'm not sure how I'd keep the sand and filings out of the engine. Any suggestions?
Or, am I overthinking it?

I really have no idea how I would figure that out. Well, that's not true. I could look in my FSM or spend time on the forum and research it. More correctly stated, I really don't know off the top of my head how I would figure that out. There is still LOTS for me to learn about these cars. Seeing Cookboy's 85 this weekend though has really got me wishing I had done more to get it done than I have.
One step at a time. One. small. step...

See, that's one of the reasons I love this forum. Lots of people willing to help out. Of course, I could have gotten a proper ID on this port had I done a little research, so I broke a Cardinal rule of the forum - research before posting - sorry!
I really appreciate everyone's help - thanks guys!
