Hey guys, quick hopefully easy question. Which way does the worm gear go on the crankshaft? Bevel in or out? I'm guessing in, but I didn't take it off, machine shop did and didn't put it back on, nor do they remember. Thank you in advance.

i'm in the garage now so hoping someone knows this off the top of their head: should a leakdown test be performed with all plugs out, or only the the cylinder being tested? we're getting very different readings depending on which way we do the test. thanks, tony
