Hey 32 V
You might want to cover over the IH holes while you wait
or are working. Sure wouldn't want to drop something down
the endless hole...... or spill.... or

PS Damn, you sure cleaned up that valley purdy.

I had an Accel coil failure after two years and about 6,000 miles of driving. Replaced with the MSD's for approximately the same $$. All is well now. I've heard of at least one other Accel coil failure in the last few years. The stock coils are also an excellent choice. FWIW.
I'm heading to the Accel injectors as well. Hope it turns out well for both of us!

Hey Ry.....I removed pretty much everything in the valley....breather box included. It was pretty grimey....like you said, thats probably where the burnt oil smell was coming from (brthr box gasket). The breather box bolts were loose as heck!! I am replacing coils, injectors and all needed gaskets. I'm getting a vacuum pump today to check the secondary actuators. (old one broke)....anyway, Jeffvette was saying how 1/2 the new ones available were bad.....I would like to buy a couple for insurance & just install them. I guess I need to buy 12 at a time!!! Looking to get the dealer to test them for me before I buy.....

I'm also a noobee to the Z, and also poised over the plenum. I was going to wait till I could afford to do the whole nine yards, but from hearing 'bout the loose IH bolts, that alone would warrant investigation. Injectors might have to wait, but I think it's time to dive in and have a look-around!

Like you said, GREAT THREAD!

Sorry to be so obtuse, but 1/2 of what are bad?

TIA:wink:,
