Clay, you are correct, and I have had to remove thousands of them with a pocket knife installed from kits decades ago. In not one single instance did any of those foam pads seal up the bottom plugs for very long.
Just about as bad is dabbing JB Weld over them, it gets soft and peels right off with a little help from my knife. Even when it looks like the JB Weld has stuck well, it fails an air pressure leak test 100 percent of the time....FWIW....Cliff

--Anything to get it past that 12/12 warranty Im well versed in q-jets but i would definitely send that operation out to some one with experience and is set up with the proper tools and equipment.

I had hard cranking issues with my 66 327 Corvette. My fuel pump went out on a road trip and I replaced it with the correct one it has started on the first turn of the key ever since. Makes me think it was weak at cranking RPMs.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
