    Garry, my low speed insert / nozzle pried out easy with two screw drivers.
    I was thinking about using a little loc-tite upon installation.

    When I get the new lead seal, should I attempt to "dig" out
    the old one, or just add the new on top of old?

    Looks like it might be a pain to dig out. I suppose one could
    split the crankcase, but not sure one could "poke" at the
    old seal from the inside of the front case?

    Is there a proper distance these nozzles should be installed at?
    I see nothing in the manual about that.
    Mine was "bottomed out".

    The inside of my nozzle hole appears a little "out of round",
    like a used sand blast nozzle gets.
    Will this affect the performance of the engine?
    Thanks!

    Prepare to be boarded!
