HP2.. dont be a smart A** you over think to much, take a break from the computer.   your acting like sherlock homes here, the only mystery here, IS  why your being an A**

I'm trying to help you out and you call me a smart A$$? That's a new approach.

There is an intersting editorial in the latest hot rod about figuring out problems. Read and you'll understand things better.

The sequence of events and the changes that took place in that sequence are relevent items to help us zero in on a diagnosis as this could be anything from bad parts, bad oil, excessive spring pressure, mis-assembly, or assembly sequence. You've already admitted to being short on experience, time, and work area, so the more precise the diagnosis is the better the odds of nailing down the specific issues(s) that caused this problem and will subsequently fix the problem. But, if you'd rather take a shotgun approach to figuring it out, have at it and I won't pollute your post again.

Good luck.
