french

Thank you

I think that would also be called the "harmonic balance", which is the
pulley connected to the forward end of the crankshaft. Those generally
can leak if the seals go bad behind them. I think because of it's
location that it may cost a bit more than usual - but I can't say how
much work is involved if seals have to be replaced.

Also, I am not sure if the engine has to be pulled. Perhaps someone can
chime in?

PS: would you be at all familiar with the Poiteau region of France? My
ancestors came from there and I'm trying to learn more.

Merci.

Merci beacoup Franeric. Je suis de Louisiana et ma famille est
francaise. Je parle un petite peu francais parce que j'ai estudie le
francais dans l'ecole. Je parle espanol meilleur que je parle francais.

Poitou est l'origine de ma famille, la famille Babineaux - (Babineau -
1765). J'ai visite' France par anee 1999 et j'ai visite' oberkampf.
Oui? Oberkampf? Je me rappelle "le tempete".

J'aime le France, le louvre, le tour eiffel, la republique, le champs
elysee'. MC Solaar?

Je ne peux pas écrire bien en francais. Ma ville d'origine elle
s'appelle "La nouvelle Iberie" ou "New Iberia" dans le sur de
Louisianne. On parle francais un petit peu - et plus dans la musique
"Cajun".

Bonne chance mon ami -- laissez les bon temps roullez!

Jamie

Whew! It's been a LONG time since I tried to write or speak in French.

Your english is much better than my french - better than my daughter's
french even!

Our 1985 765T needed a damper (harmonic damper, looks like the crankshaft
pulley) at about 200K km. The outer part has a rubber layer to fasten it to
the inner part and the inner part, and the rubber broke - a common
happening. The price is not surprising.
