If I remember correctly (and if I dont, my wife will remind me), once she got the socket over the plug, I was able to break it loose with an open end wrench, the she was able to get it out with her hands....after listening to the whole righty tighty, lefty loosen theory!

Got the door panel off and doesnt seem to be anything in its travel.

Anybody?

Had the same problem with 2 and 4 on my '86. Finally got my wife, with her dainty hands and fingers to get them started, then used an open end wrench on the spark plug socket. Your right, six plugs were a snap, 2 and 4 involved alot of swearing, drinking and walking away! My wife heard me and...

Hey all, the passenger side window on my '86 coupe goes down to about 3 inches above the door and stops there. It goes back up just fine. Any suggestions on what to do to get it all the way down? ;help Thanks in advance

Thanks for the info.....pulled the plugs this morning, only one had the gap closed by the piston luckily(cyl. #4) put in the correct plugs and runs fine. Thanks for all the quick responses!

Thanks guys,I worked most of the night on the car and have installed the plugs, fortunatly the car started. Now, do I switch the plugs out, or leave them?

The kid at the Auto Zone said the AC Delco plug 41-629 were the plug for my engine...5.7 cast iron.....they look alot longer in the threaded area than the plugs that were in there. Does this sound like the right plug to anyone? Thanks in advance.

Thanks Vette, I can get it there. Thanks for the direction.

Thanks for the link, Vette, but it keeps comming up invalid. I see Ecklers has the tube for $94, Ebay has a used one for $49. Probably go with new, I'm sure the used ones are all brittle. Thanks for the input!

Also, any reprucussions with using a block off, other than getting a code? Thanks

Thanks Vette, the only code I had been getting was 34, MAF. Started cleaning and tying up loose ends when I noticed the split and loose wire. Havent started it since then. Is the EGR tube readily available anywhere? Thanks

Hi folks, On the passenger side of the engine, there is a tube coming off of the exhaust manifold, travels over the valve cover, where the tube becomes flex tube, then into a fitting on the intake manifold with some type of sensor mounted on it. The flexible part of the tube is split and the...

Thanks Grumpy, I did change the oil and filter, Shell 10 W 30. I will pick up the second guage, Harbor Freight actually just opened up around here recently. Hib, ran a couple of tanks of hi test, didn't notice any difference. The service engine soon light does come on occasionally while driving...

Hi all, new here. Just picked up an '86 coupe that needs minor work, but is still driveable. One of the questions I have is on the oil pressure. Oil pressure guage reads 42 to 52 most of the time, but when accellerating it sounds like there is no oil getting to the rockers. The car is also...
