(The two rear ones under the manifolds).</p><p class="ecxMsoNormal">No way to access them from above and I very much doubt if it can be done from below though I haven’t looked. I’ve got Webers and a big bore 6 branch so there’s not much room.</p><p class="ecxMsoNormal">OK, I’ll have to strip out the Webers and drop the exhaust; that’s a given. And, at the same time, I can do a few other little things.</p><p class="ecxMsoNormal">BUT, but....I don’t want to do it now. Not just when what we optimistically call our summer is just beginning.</p><p class="ecxMsoNormal">I hope to keep an eye on the loss and last it out until autumn. (Usually summer starts in June and autumn starts about a week later so I may not have much time).</p><p class="ecxMsoNormal">I was thinking of putting some Radweld or similar magic goo into the coolant. I know it’s fairly effective in radiators.....might it work on the core plugs?</p><p class="ecxMsoNormal">Simon</p></div><br>_______________________________________________
