Re: Re: Codes 171 & 174 TSB # 03-16-1 update

There was alot of oil on top of the isolator bolts...
I did replace the 6 port seals and the top half seal gasket but not the valve cover....it was around $100.00 kind of a ripoff I think....not sure if I will replace it or not...
the worst part was not knowing what to clean everything with, I didnt want to use anything that will corode the gaskets or bolts etc...
some of the vacuum lines were hard to get at also...

I think you are now the resident expert (having most recently done the work)

Yeah those plugs were a pain in the arse. At least they weren't seized. That was my biggest worry.

Did you replace the rubber seals too? Were you amazed at the pools of oil in the plenum? How were your EGR ports? Did you bother with the valve cover and Fuel regulator hose? (I didn't bother with the valve cover and my regulator hos was tight.)
