Glad to see the pictures. I mean glad to see it was clogged. Alot of people don't believe or understand how bad it can get. I am glad you got it all apart and found it that bad.

Thanks for the advice!

Yes, I'm glad it was plugged too because it's a lot of work to get at that puppy. It's like playing that old game "twister". The infamous "banjo bolt" is difficult to line up when it goes back together.

I'll take a break a while, then I have to do the water pump.
