It took me around 20 minutes to just find the spark plugs, and I probably beat the flat rate time.


(Hint: Removal of the front two plugs require the A/C compressor to be removed first.)

I think i just threw up seeing that motor. And i thought that changing the injectors in a 24v cummins was a bi*ch.

oooooooook I officially recognize that I am a dumbass for suggesting the cylinder head routine. However I still stand behind the borescope idea. especially since you already are changing the spark plugs. But I suppose by this time it doesn't matter.
