#64 Engine replacing the sump plate studs

6

Duct tape It is not always clearly visible

whether the stud is rotating, or

whether the nuts are turning
together, especially when
3 working underneath the car

with little lighting. A handy
tip is to apply a paint mark on

one side of the stud, as we show

on the picture. When the stud

rotates, it is very visible because
the paint rotates with it.

Now unscrew the long stud with

the two-nut technique, while
holding the nut (3) in place with

the bent spanner (picture 5 on

the previous page). Remove the green paint
nut when it comes loose from 7

the stud, if you use Duct tape it

will stick to the wrench.

Note, there is still a flat washer

(photo 8) (see pictures page 5
and 11) between the nut and 8 4

the crankcase. Use a magnet to

prevent it from disappearing

into the crankcase while un-
screwing the long stud.
