Well all the important parts have been pretty much covered. I worked in DC for 28+ years driving from site to site during the day everyday and I vote for taking the metro into town. Parking can be a real crap shoot. I have driven to a site in the middle of town on “K” street and pulled right...
Nice write up of the clutch / seal job. Glad to hear it all worked the fist go around.
Back when I was a heavy equipment mechanic I started wearing a knit cap all the time. It keeps a lot of the grease and oil out of your hair and it also helps cushion the impacts and help keeps down the number...
I don't remember getting a response back that it was received. I always go online (live chat on GL web site) a day or two after submitting my paper work and verify they have received it and save the reply I get just in case.

Yes the magnetic relay on the block works just like the solenoid on a car starter. The small wire on the top terminal is from the starter button in the cab.
The "A3" is the last model of the deuce and had the cat engine and auto transmission. Thought it might have been a “A3” because of your comment about it having voltage in neutral. I haven't run across a “A2” with a neutral safety switch before. Not sure how you could have anything working if...
