It is a PIA!

Yeah guys, it's stuck in there real good. I was thinking on having my "gorilla" son, who breaks bolts regulary, to have a go at it. But with my luck, he'll shatter the insulation on the plug and...

#5 Plug is still there!

As to being overtightened, I'll say! I had soaked it with Kriol for hours, and managed to get it to rotate about 45 Degrees then it stopped dead in its tracks! My 3/8" ratchet was stripping out, so I...

EGR valve cleaning

ffox is on the money there. A word of caution on cleaning the EGR valve. Do not use any solvent to clean it! It could seep into the diaphram and desolve it! Use a wire brush to clean the opening that...

Just another thing to inspect I think. The distributer cap and the rotor. If these are worn, you engine will run rough, have no power to speak of, and will make it bog down like crazy as you give it...
