Well, pulled all the plugs....they are bosche platinums....I had read somewhere that they did not help much with performance in the OB cars....They looked ok, but there was a little green tarnish on the ground electrode of each plug...Water looks good, no oil in it....oil looks good, no water in it...

I cleaned them, put a tad bit of Marvel in each cylinder, put a dab of copper anti-seize on the threads, put em back, and turned her over a couple more times just for ****s and giggles, and moved on.

I got my fuel lines cut off at the firewall, (was unable to disconnect them), removed the overflow/expansion tank.....was easy...Made new lines, and clamped on the two top fittings, slid the hose on the firewall fittings (not so easy), and then tightened the clamps (again, not so easy) but I got confused of which one went where, and I think I crossed them...gotta re-check in the morning....I can't believe I got confused on (2) bleeding hoses...

Anyway, here is a plug shot
