Doing it at the same time while you do the isolator bolt fix (p0171 and 174) is your best bet.

Okay, could not get the isolator bolts, due to problems I described. I got my checks, and money, am only lacking a way to get there.

I have already poured the mineral spirits onto the brass piece with the 1/4 inch hole.

What can I expect from that? explosion? Two seconds of racing engine?
