haha damn i must have been really tired when i typed that. yes, i meant torque and not torch, although now that i think about it, i could have used the heat method to loosen the bolts lol. but yeah, with the exhaust piping in the way, it was kinda a pain to torque down to specs.

^^ Thanks for posting your method. I can see how that can make it less messy and you can better control the overflow in the end.
Now I'm not sure which Starbucks to steal a syrup pump from haha |

I used this. Absolutely no issues and my arm did not become tired during the fill.
Performance Tool W1139 Quart/Gallon Fluid Pump I picked mine up at Autozone, but you can also get it at Amazon Performance Tool W1139 Quart/Gallon Fluid Pump - Hand Tool Sets - Amazon.com Fits both quart and gallon jugs. |
