Len,
You do realise you are running the fuel lines without the copper gasket rings?
Might be part of the leakage problem...

Whats up with the clutch, I thought we had it sorted?

Heh .. with same problem (after changing the head gasket) i encountered on one AE86. We spent 2 weeks to find the same problem as you had.. Undecided

No, I am running with the copper fuel lines. the bit where the rubber hits the metal part is where its leaking not at the bolt.

Regarding the clutch, need to test if its working so far it wasn't. Didn't release or its the clutch I don't know yet. Wasn't able to shift while the engine was running

Not as far as I know... it's not mentioned in the manual.

We installed the fuel line without them 2 weeks ago because we couldnt find them. Looks like Lennert installed them by now.
BTW, that fuel line was leaking fuel all over the place on my car as well. Strangely enough after having been in storage for almost a year, must be some kind of dry-rot....

I would not take any risk, Lennert is having a new one made.

BTW, we can pick up the rotisserie.

nice, it runs now.
obx is inexpensive, but the reason there's a huge gap for you, is that in the US we have to run a catalytic converter for emissions. bet that gap was about 12 inches??
