    How to get oil out of plugs wells 05 LS V8

    Update... The shop vac wouldn't fit in the hole. My little girl said I should turn printer paper into a tube and put that in there. It worked. Clean as a whistle.

    How to get oil out of plugs wells 05 LS V8

    I've tried the paper towels. I got some out but not enough to feel comfortable pulling the spark plug. I'll try the shop vac. I'm not sure why that didn't occur to me. Thanks!

    How to get oil out of plugs wells 05 LS V8

    I searched this. There are just too many results to find it. I'm in the process of replacing the valve cover gaskets. My plug wells on the passenger side are full of oil. If I remove the plugs that oil is going to go into the combustion chamber. How do you get the oil out OR does it...

    Is it an LSE grill? My wife hit a tire on the freeway now the LS is snaggle-toothed. For $50 I'd be in.

    Need to know how to remove upper intake and why is there oil in there?

    Thanks guys. I got it all back together and it's a mess. I'm getting a misfire on cyl 1 and 5 and a random misfire on all cylinders(P300). I'm guessing I'm getting unmetered air in from the intake. It must no have sealed completely. If I get over 1500 rpms it stutters really bad. Any other...

    Need to know how to remove upper intake and why is there oil in there?

    Another update. The last nut on the engine wiring harness retainer can apparently only be accessed by removing the cowl cover and strut tower brace. Otherwise you can't get a tool on the nut. I'm floored. I'm reverting back now to the question, is there any real danger in just putting the...

    Need to know how to remove upper intake and why is there oil in there?

    I know I'm jumping around on this but on the oil in the intake thing it's coming in through the pcv system. This can't be good for the ignition system. Is there a fix for this? That much oil in the air has probably already started fouling my plugs. Am I off base?

    Need to know how to remove upper intake and why is there oil in there?

    The thing holding it down in the back is most likely the engine wiring harness retainer nut. There are apparently 2 of them. I removed the one on top but can't get to the one on the back.

    Cooling parts replacement help needed

    I haven't removed the intake completely yet. I removed the bolts and pried it up in the front. Having not removed it completely do you think the gaskets are still toast and I should remove it completely for new gaskets or will it be ok? The car has just under 100k miles if that means anything.

    Cooling parts replacement help needed

    Blow by as in need rings? I'll wipe it out as soon as I figure out how to get it out and replace the pcv valve. Could I be looking at bigger issues?
