Plenum Pull: problems and questions
Well it seems the farther I get into this plenum pull the more questions I have. I have now got the injectors and one of the I/H off.
A little background on my car: 93 with 15k miles. Has been driven less than 1K in last 10 years. Here is a shot of the injectors. Do these look ok? Or need replacement? Keep in mind not all of the injectors look like this. This was the worst pair. Once I got the I/H off on the drivers side I noticed a lot of oil on the gasket material. Is this just there because it came out when I broke the seal on the gasket? Or was it seeping oil around the gasket? Could this be part of the reason I see alot of oil staining in the runners? It definitely looks like the gasket was starting to fail near the water jacket. See pictures below: One other problem I have encountered now... I have broken a bolt head off on the coolant outlet pipe that threads into the I/H. Any suggestions on how to get this broken bolt out? I have actually broken one on both the drivers side and passenger side coolant outlet pipe. Thanks for all the help! Aaron |
