I read in a few threads that people stated that they fixed the the cup in a way that they thought "looked right". Does anyone actually have an image as to which way the "handle" of the cup should actually face? Also the power rod in my VI seems to spin freely with no "end" point. It also moves in and out...should this be taken as normal?

 

Well it is 4:23 AM EST and I have decided that I will go with the orientation in this pic in Mike's writeup:




Some have commented that that the handle should be left near the 3 o clock position...I have positioned it slightly past that, exactly as in this pic. Also I believe the power rod's positioning is at the mercy of the VIAS actuator as mentioned in another thread.

 

that's the one.. and what the hell are you doing fixing your car at 4am... go to bed man it is a car not a girl.....

 

I am excited to get back my 30 hp

 

does it really work that way? i am having problems with removing those screws... it's so tight, and feels like i will break the screw head... so... i decided do it next time....

 

i tried jb weld but it comes off... i put it on and after six months later it tore apart again... what i did to fix my vais problem is weld it... i went to a machine shop and they tig welded it for me... no problems since then... $50
