rebuild and flywheel questions

OK....

1) My rebuild flooded for the first time this morning. I have just about 1000 miles on it. is this normal?

2) It came to my attention during the rebuild process that I have a lightweight machined flywheel with counterweight. The weight totaled approx. 11 lbs if IIRC.
Can this affect idle quality at all? Any downside to it?

This is on an S4 TII no air pump, no PS, no AC...

Pretty common to flood on a reabuild if you used, used housings or didn't lap the end plates.

you also need those injectors cleaned and balanced, don't forget to solder that resistor pack wiring connector.


i should have thought about it at the time but i knew you needed your car back, it usually takes 3 weeks to ship out and recieve and i still haven't located a local shop around here that can do them, maybe up near your area you can find a diesel shop that can service them, turnaround is usually a day.
