A few questions regarding a manifold replacement (I’m installing on 2008 3.0).
1. Drain plug on the bottom bottom of the manifold how do I get this installed? Guessing I need a really big allen wrench. Sorry couldn’t upload my photo, but appears an big allen wrench would do the job.
2. Should I replace the studs in the head? If so what tools do I need to get them out. Mine seem pretty secured and not willing to come out.
3. I am replace the studs for the carb. Should I put something on the treads going into the manifold?
4. After scraping the gasket off the head it don’t look at neat as the new manifold surface. Should I put a bead of gasket sealer on the head side of the replacement gasket?
*If I called the “head” the wrong part I apologize. I’m not mechanic lol.
