You clearly know better than to put 3/4" thread plugs in your 1/2" thread heads. Is it possible that they get bent in just in the process of installing them? Try taking them out right away to see if you were able to get them in without bashing them on the side of the plug hole. The only 2 ways I can think of would be to either be hit by the piston, or hit in the process of installing them. I don't think the former is possible even with a rod bearing gone as long as you have the right plug, and I don't think the latter is something that YOU would do. - Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list or mailto:help@vwtype3.org
