I'm fairly sure that's for the oil passageway. Those plugs are removed when the block is hot-tanked, they run brushes through there to make sure all the crud is removed.Right off the bat.... Does anyone know what this little plug is for? (DEAD CENTER of the pic.). Oil? Coolant? I had a thought cross my mind of putting a gauge there.
You should be able to pull out that whole 90° fitting by twisting on it. Granted, you'll probably have to reef on it pretty hard, and you'll more than likely end up destroying the fitting in the process, but you could put a new one in.Working on my hoses and cables...
Brake Booster vacuum line- cannot bend the barb in the head, so it's stuck facing up. I think I'll have my Y8 manifold back this weekend so I might install that this weekend and it's barb might not be stuck.
Thx gee. I can't wait to get this crap rolling!I love this thread
Well, See I've tried to just twist it, like I do on ALL my other manifolds (and cars I wiretuck), with some pliers, but it just don't work. It starts to twist the fitting itself and bend the metal, so I don't feel like ripping a hole in it and having a vacuum leak to deal with... so it'll stay for now.I'm fairly sure that's for the oil passageway.
