Yeah, Abe we've talked 'bout Hamer before. We are of the same mindset when it comes to them.
And we don't need to know 'bout your personal shimming problems. There are pills and operations bout stuff like that. Go to a dr.....lol

if it was Hamer... it was likely 2 pennies drilled out and ground down with the copper shavings sold for scrap.
*edit- sorry, yes. banjo bolt, two washers.

typically, you'll see two washers one on each side of the banjo fitting- one to seal the fitting against the 'mount' and another to seal the bolt to the fitting.
so... now what?

not necessarily a big deal, but if the banjo bolt is not centered in the banjo fitting, the holes in the banjo bolt may be partially restricted, limiting the fluid flow.

Okay...tested the AFM and it works fine. Looks like I should be looking for a vacuum leak now. I need a gauge. It will be a couple days before I get it though. And, the inside of the AFM is horrible. Its pretty corroded and has a bunch of white (I'm guessing the corrosion) stuff all in the inside. Not to mention its dirty. And I have a new air filter on my truck (just to make sure) lol.
Also, my idle still changes a little bit from time to time. Idle will be at 600 sometimes and it usually always stays at 750. I'm going to retime it in a little bit. Thanks!
