And all the tips....

All the tips came out when I changed ALL 8 GP's today. Nice way to spend an hour! Major relief when the last one came out intact.
A nice relief for a diesel novice such as I. Some previous owner had put autolite's in there. Was having an anxiety attack to get them out while I could.
Think I just got real lucky for a change!!!
Thanks everyone for all the tips on GP R&R.

glad it went like it should have.
i know the feeling of sweating it... i recently replaced mine for the first time & was so relieved to see they weren't autolites, i could've cried.
