There's freedom of movement on the riser, as turning it with my hand is a snap (I understand these things stick quite regularly).
If anybody has a picture they could post regarding the spring, I'd greatly appreciate it. I'm assuming it doesn't install internally, meaning within the exhaust manifold. Thanks in advance for your help!! | | | | | Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,438 Extreme Gabster | | Extreme Gabster Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,438 | There was a little steel rod sticking out of the manifold parallel to the riser shaft. It has most likely rusted away. The outside of the spring hooked on it and the inside of the spring fit in that slot on the shaft. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2001 Posts: 3,458 Extreme Gabster | | Extreme Gabster Joined: Oct 2001 Posts: 3,458 | This belongs in Engine&Drivetrain so look for it there.
