I'm having my valve cover powder coated, and bought a new seal kit for when it comes back. Only one thing holding me up, the damn rubber spark plug seals on the inside of the valve cover.
I've been trying to remove these for almost an hour, I can't get behind them to remove them, or to even get them to budge. I want to get these out before I send them to the powdercoaters.
All I've been able to do is impale the rubber numerous times trying to lift it out.
I've been careful not to damage the cover in any way, but these things are still stuck in. I've looked at the new ones to get an idea of how to remove them, just I've kinda run out of ideas.
Is there some special trick to get these bastards out?
Thanks,
BTW, I searched for 20 minutes before I made this new topic.
