Gave up and pulled the bolts C70 1998

I decided it was entirely too risky to deal with bolts of unknown torque.
I have a spare bolt set, so I removed all 12. $30.00 is not worth the total cost of this "experience"

All the bolts came out *very* easily. The ends had an odd mixture of oil and water and I'm failrly sure this was the problem.

I'm going to expend more effort and time clearing the bolt holes before I try again.


My additional seals and rubber arrived from FCP today. As soon as I sort the turbo install, I'll be ready to go.

... and of course, now it's raining. 102 a week ago and now it's 70 degrees and raining. Screwed up weather. Gotta love climate change.
