"Hello all. I am re-installin
"Hello all. I am re-installing the injectors in my engine but have run into a problem. The front (lower half) of the chamber remained in the head when it was deep cleaned, surfaced and the valves ground. Do i need to pull them and replace the packings? If so what is the best way to pull them without causing any damage?
The rear (upper half) was removed and bagged.
The manual says to "always use new insulation packing" on the rear pre-cumbustion chamber.
My problem is that I am having a heck of a time removing the old insulators from the recess in the top of the chamber rear half. They seem to be mashed in there pretty tightly. I sure don't want to damage anything. I have tried putting them in boiling water thinking that maybe heating up the chamber would loosen them. No luck.
Anyone have any experience with these or have any ideas? Any advice sure would be appreciated.
