I don't "think" it pinched or rolled the o ring..but I guess there's gonna only be one way to find out
10mm flex ratchet wrench was a savior getting these bolts in/out. Even with pan lowered, there isn't much room to work! |
Which brace is that? Did you try at all to install the pump without removing the gears ?
