Hey Wambr,, just call me JOG,, save some typing,.

Everybody knows these engines vibrate pretty hard. I think most of us want to get things tight, so they dont vibrate loose. I tighten my cover up, then loosen it, to see how it feels. Once I get it tight enough that it doesnt come loose easy, I go back to as close as I can to That Tight..

I so don't do. just dwell on the hand.

Is there a special tool that is needed to get this thing off......

Here is Motion Pro's answer to that question:

I have one of those (works fine), but I used to use this:

It is a 2 1/2" OD flat washer. I ground one edge thin enough to fit into the plug. I clamped it into the jaws of a Vice-Grip to use it. It worked great!
