Jul 07, 2022     Engine probe and spark plug wire routing - (3 hours)       Category: Engine
Researched, planned and secured the left side engine probe wires and spark plug wires. Researched required torques for the valve cover screws (30 in-lbs) and spark plug wires nuts (90 in-lbs). Secured the left spark plug wires with adel clamps to the bottom screw of the valve covers and used those to secure the engine probe wires with the “pitot tubing zip tie technique. Fabbed a small aluminum extension to the bottom of the rear baffle to prevent spark plug wire chafing. Left some slack in the spark plug wires for strain relief and to aid in spark plug removal. Seemed to work pretty well, but may still need some additional ties. Very happy to have this done as I was unsure of how this was all supposed to work.
