Faster if you tack down the zipper with pins and silicone. Fish hook proof gloves from Dick’s sporting goods or your favorite angling shoppe are a necessity.

Easily one of the best and most exciting reads I’ve seen. Freakin’ amazing pictures and write up! Can’t say enough positive words. This should be a sticky in the hot rods and modifications section.

Welcome Anvil!

Yeah, a well respected member on this forum once gave these instructions and lo and behold he was and is correct. I’m just quoting.

Leaks on valve covers are typically because they are either bent or you did not apply the sealant properly. Specifically, you need to wipe the heads clean and then apply the sealant to the valve head and not to the valve cover.

Juanprado is correct. Always see what you got prior to forking out cash. Drain the oil and look for water. Add marvel mystery BUT REMOVE the glowplugs BEFORE trying to turn over so you don’t hydrolock. If you don’t open the glowplugs or remove the injectors and you pour in liquid or you have...

I was using 6-points. This bolt just wanted to play hard to get.

I’ll have pics later today

Yes mog. That’s what the original owner did. I’m now going back to replace with proper parts with the help of RWH.
