Hello,
I am trying to repair a leak in the oil gallery under cylinders 3-4  As you can nearly see, the air deflection plate is up against the leaking clean out plug. I would like to know from someone who has done this before, can I remove the rocker arms and pull the push rods and tubes as far as they will go, can I move the deflector enough to get access to the plug? Thanks for your help. Mike |

Pull the pushrod tubes halfway out, then swing the inboard end down and pull them that way. Some won't slide straight out due to the suspension console being in the way, but they can all slide partway out.
