Need Help, Started Changing Gp

Well I got everything to do it, and started on the drivers side, took the vaule cover off and unplugged the block, then took the block off and thats were I am at now, there is a metal peice that seats above the gp. Does it maybe screw off, or pop off. I dont want to mess it up. Please help

Thanks Derek

I'm not sure what your refering to... If the GP is un-plugged it should screw out like a spark plug. Unless i'm missing somthing.

There is a block thing on top and it has three metal stripes on it that meshes with this other metal peice with three stripes that seats over the glow plug, it is like a inch by a inch big and it can turn but it doesn't seem like it is coming off or getting tighter.

The only thing you should have to do is pull the glow plug connector and use a 10mm deep well socket to remove the glow plugs.
