The seals on the tubes need to be replaced. The #4 exhaust one is leaking right in front of me and the engine hasn't been run for a year. All my manuals say don't use pliers so how are they removed? Rocker arms, retaining wire and push rods are out. It wiggles a smidge but I can't get a real grip on them and they seem to be stuck to the block.
This is my first time replacing the seals so any other recommendations are appreciated. Right now I'm just trying to get the left side done (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) |

All tubes out. #2 exhaust was lost in the process (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) What a PITA. Just need new seals, one tube, and she can go back together. Oh, the four cylinder head nuts were good @ 23 lb./ft. so I'm gonna assume the others hidden within the cooling tin are good as well. Can't wait to get the engine back in the car but first there's need for a full hell-hole replacement... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/welder.gif)
