Spark Plug Bracket
« on: February 02, 2009, 19:42:31 »
Simple question (I think): The metal bracket that mounts on the driver's side above IP. Holds spark plug wires. It is bolted into the block -- is it merely a matter of removing bolts, or do these go into the engine (thus requiring something to avoid a leak upon retightening?)...

Easily removed, just two short bolts from what I remember.

That's funny, I was just wondering the same thing about two days ago.  I finally decided it would be crazy to start poking holes in the block just to mount a bracket.   :o
