    Sparkplug severly stuck, very stiff and doesnt want to move past 1/2 - 1 turn!!!

    Typically the valve guide seals will start leaking oil past the valves into the combustion chamber and onto the plugs tips when started.. Since the threads extend into the combustion chamber, oil can build up on the plug tips making them hard to remove. I would guess excessive blowby could...

    Hey guys!!

    anyone still have an under cover?

    I also made one out of an aluminum sheet that keeps the air coming in from the bumper directed into the intercooler. I put a smaller piece on the drivers side by the oil cooler to deflect more air into the coolers and radiator.
