Torqued 7 out of 10 plugs today. Also installed the o-rings on the coil packs. I have two more and truck goes to the shop next week for the threadsert install.

Gearwrench swivel sockets compared to coil pack. 8" and 6" should be enough, but they come in a kit.


A couple of the COP's looked like this.


O-ring and die electric grease


Injector clip that was in a spark plug hole. Interesting finding it in there.

 

i dont see how that groove would help over to flat surfaces. be a bugger to clean out i bet.

i was hoping i could just use the lube locker, but now im gonna have to use silicon with the lube locker since i "upgraded" my cover!


who did you have to give a backrub to get a shock boot on your stabilizer? ours came bare nakked!

 

Skip- we don't need one because there is a seal on shaft side. I used RTV black on my cover with out issue. I don't see why you can't use the lube locker gasket though. I believe @WE3ZS has done so already.

 

I'll have to dry fit the gasket to see how it looks. If nothing eat i can silicon just the cover side to the lu e locker gasket then it would be removable from rear end anyhow.

I painted mine copper color

 

Coop has it right Skip, I used just the Lube Locker reusable gasket on my '08 finned cover about 4 years ago and it is doing fine, no drips and no RTV!

 

Ooooo nice Falcon wagon!

The comet did sit nicer before on the old wheels but the new taller ones makes it 4x4 stance. I agree dropping the whole thing front to back like 2" would be great! Maybe I will look into it more this summer when I have time. Maybe a coil out of the front and a couple 2" blocks for the rear?

 

Today, I'm gonna drive the ex
Really just not using her much lately.

 

Make sure to check the oil

 

I am finishing getting mine ready for the trip to TX

 

Did someone say "nekkid?"

Stewart

 

Pretty sure it's still in there

 

Are you sure it didn't leak out? We're still waiting for photo confirmation..............






JK, glad to hear you're still using your Ex.

 

Went to start it, dead battery Went to pull out the battery and broke the stupid little retainer bolt Ugh I'll deal with you tomorrow...

 

Ain't it great ?? I've had to pull the tray out and with lots of heat and a pair of vise grips, got the broken piece out the bottom.

 

lol!

As far as I knew they came with them. You might check your box and make sure it isn't stuck in the bottom with the fancy rancho sticker :-p
