    haha thanks for the enthusism. yeah the plastic elbow was shattered so its not there and i have rocked and wiggle the h*ll out of it already. I'm going to be giving it another try in a day or so.

    So its not best to pull it straight out but it is better to pull it out at a slight angle? As in rocking it back and forth by the heater or water pump hose and the alternator bracket bolt arm on the assembly. Is that what you were saying.

    What I'm saying is...if you put pressure on that timing cover. You'll be buying and replacing a timing cover as well.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.
