Slant 6 Turbo 68Dart Project
Oh... apparently I switched to autolites... oh yeah I did that when I wanted to regap the ngks and broke one of the tips... and all the auto store had was autolites, well, they were working and cheap - so I got some more... except two steps colder than whatever was in there. Designed in the USA, made in Mexico - pretty much the story with anything.
Anyways, pulled the other plugs and apparently leaving the washer off was a bad thing, because there was oil all over the outside of the plug sitting in the drool tube on every single plug. No oil in the firing range though, which I was worried about initially - going oh god my rings are gone... but no - it's outside, and the plug was not making a seal against the tube without a washer. I put it on, and it looks good to go on the new plugs.
You can see the oil drooled all over the white part of the plugs and the tightening nut.
Out with the 66's, and in with the 63's. That's 3 steps colder than one step too hot. lol.
Now, playing around with this ignition box - anyone know how to get this silicone/rubber/plastic junk out? I tried a heat gun, it made it sticky but still just as hard to take out. I want everything out of the box basically.
