Re: Stuck spark plug
Still working on getting the front of the engine torn down. Pulled the rocker assemblies from both sides wondering if they were involved in the lock up, nope. Number 4 pushrod was bent, so I straightened it out. Down to the point of pulling the front damper off, hope I can get an impact in there, if not the radiator will have to be removed to get a clear shot of the bolt.
One thing I found curious as I moved the crank in it's travel, I saw very little rocker activity going on.
I have one of those bore scopes, with a camera on the end, which lights up, I am going to poke it into the chambers through the sparkplug holes, see if there is anything interesting in there, I am for sure starting with #4.
Considering the amount of carbon on that plug when I got it out, it had been not opening the exhaust for a bit. From what I have seen the engine is very clean, no sludge on the rocker areas of the heads. Maybe the low miles is correct. Makes you wonder what broke.
