    Removing the harmonic balancer?????

    have you pulled the oil pan off yet to clean it out?If so place a block of wood between the cran and the side of the block.Or you can pull the dust cover off the front of the trans and have someone hold a pry bar between the teeth on the flywheel and the bell housing.Both work very well.

    draining the cooling system

    the timing cover gasket won't blow smoke.It just fills the crankcase with water.With the heads off the car you can't check the gasket.With the heads and oil pan off it doesn't take long to pull the timing cover off.Much easier now than later.

    draining the cooling system

    if you did find anything with the head gaskets and you had a crankcase full of coolant I would also pull the timing cover off of the front of the engine.If the timing cover gasket fails it will dump coolant into the oil pan and make you think you lost a head gasket.Somewhat common on the earlier...

    Removing front cross member....any gottcha's?

    Re: Removing front cross member....any gottcha\'s? Never had to remove the ac line to get the crossmember out.You can move the wires on the drivers side and gently pry the crossmember up and out from the drivers side not the passenger side where the a/c lines run.

    What is the easiest way to access the fuel tank in the back?

    The RT has a panel to remove the fuel tank.If you need to take the tank out of a GTS then you need to cut out the panel to remove.You don't need to take the tank out of a GTS to remove the fuel pump but you do on a RT/10.

    What is the easiest way to access the fuel tank in the back?

    Adam,there is a access panel i the center of the rear deck.You reach it by pulling the carpet back on the deck right behind the seats and you will find a plate with 4 rivets holding it i place.this will give you access to remove the fuel pump module.

    Oil Problems

    Pull the plugs and check them for oil deposits.If they are heavily coated then you may not have valve stem oil seals. This is a easy fix that does not require the engine tobe pulled out to fix it.

    Rear gears/speedo ??

    The speedo does in fact run through the ABS system.So you can put in whatever gear you like and it won't effect the speedo.Now if you change tires thats is a different story.The ABS is calibrated to the rev per mile of the OEM tire.To give a accurate speedo reading.
