    Be sure not to loose the woodruff key in the slot on the crank. That mark I'm point to you can't see because it's behind the pulley, so in my opinion is useless.

    Ok back to the normal stuff.

    Now it's time for me to remove the valve covers. I started by removing the 10mm nuts holding the covers to the head.

    There is a nut holding the cam faze sensor connector to the sensor housing. That needs to come off then the connector can com off.

    A view from the back of the housing shows the rear intake cam seal that will get replaced later on. It's important to change this because if oil gets into the faze sensor it will cause all kinds of trouble for the edu.

    No so fast there hot shot!

    Remember the secondary injection check valves I removed earlier?

    Here is why.

    The valve cover comes in contact with the piping just enough to stop it from coming off clean. Last time I did this I scratched the pain on my freshly powered coated valve covers, and I was not a happy boy.

    What I did was, stick a ratchet extension into the pipe so I could pry it open juuuuuuuust enough to lift the cover of. I was careful not to put too much pressure on it because I didn't want to bend the piping. There is probably a more sophisticated way of doing this, but I di it my way, the Stooge way.

    And there you have it. The engine stripped down, and the valve covers removed.

    That's it for now.

    Your friendly neighborhood Stooge checking out. I'll back later for some more show and tell.

    I wouldn't push it this far again. You'll see exactly why later.

    I say yank it and do the major.
