      Great Stuff Guy,
      Were the bolts too long? The other clue I should have twigged to was the
      torque difference between loose and too tight was too few turns, indicating
      I was tightening on something with no give., ie the end of bolt threads.
      Live and learn.
      Thanks for letting me know! You made my day.
      Regards
      Geoff Bell

      I have problem with spring wear on the exhaust on my S-7.  I have worn through
      three springs and the stainless steel spring tabs on the manifold are starting
      to get a groove in them.  Anybody know of any fixes for this?
      Thanks all.
      Rich

      Did you apply the two heavy beads of high-temperature RTV all along 
      the length of the springs? This helps a lot with damping the vibration.

      Somewhere I miss what the average operating water (coolant) temp is on the 
      912/914. Yes, the manual and things I read gives lowest start temp, hot sta
      rt temp and max temp. But I would really like an average. 180f, 190f, 200f 
       ??? Or would just say 180f  to 220f is a good number to keep it in?
