Today we removed the transmission from the block and we found out, because of the new soft plug, that my engine was rebuilt. We also found out that the clutch was slipping because of a bad seal that was leaking oil onto it. The gear on the starter was also pretty shredded. The best part of today was finding out about the exhaust leak. It turns out one of the bolts from the exhaust manifold was missing. We found it wedged by the air conditioning compressor. We think it they dropped it when they were doing the rebuild and it has been sitting there for years.
