Talking I Got Leaky Primaries!! After Rebuild Go Me!!

Guess what guys I HAVE LEAKY PRIMARIES!!
I feel so happy. Problem after Problem GREAT!!!

Anyways i was wondering why my car shaked, didnt go past 4000 rpms in 4th gear, and smelled terrible (liek gas ).

Anyways today i was determined to figure out the problem so i turn the car on and i check under the upper manifold... and guess what?!! A HUGE *** puddle of gas I WAS like SWEET SCORE!! after spending 54 dolars for RC enginerres to rebuild them all of a sudden they have a huge as leak!! After that great exciment i went and parked the car in the parking garage ( i live in college, no tools no place to work on car). Tomorrow im going to the rotary specilaist mechanic in my area and ask if he would let me borrow some tools.

I wonder if it had anything to do with the low compression reading...

Are you sure its the primaries and not the PD or any of the fittings?

Sounds like you're low on halogen fluid. Better top that off and have your muffler bearings inspected, if they go, your piston gasket is going next...

Good luck!! And check the PD
