Subject: Re: PM Finds by hcbph on 2016/3/28 15:28:42 Took a little time today and got the last of the boots on along with a EGR cover. I still want to do a little more fitting on the #1 & #2 cylinders, they're caught on something but I sliced my hand up getting on what I did so it can wait a while, there was another hoseclamp down there I caught my hand on.

I did find a thing or two while in there. I found the 6 & 8 wires were wrapped around each other as well as the 5 & 7 both below the Air injector tubes above the exhaust manifold. I've never seen that before on any engine I've worked on so I straightened them out right away. Probably all in my head but I swear it idles better since doing this work than before. Now the only thing left for this project is getting those stainless steel ties in and in place plus a little straightening and that's one more off the list. I did take it one step further. I grabbed a fire extinguisher out of the shop and put it in the car just-in-case. Never rely on anything till it's proven over time. Better safe than sorry. Paul |
