I think that covers it. Went fairly smooth other than a sticky crank bolt. Almost certain that none of the hoses or bolts had ever been apart since factory install. I had to slice many of them open and peel them off.

Stupid crank bolt was a serious PITA. Bump method failed maybe a dozen times. Ended up grabbing a flywheel bolt and taking a breaker bar to it, then some lube and finally able to bump it free. Cracked a deep well 14mm socket in 2 spots and rounded off the flywheel nut pretty well ... balls.

Tuna can looks like it hasn't been checked in years. Sadly, this is the closest I've ever been to Idaho.

Looks like a valve cover gasket and some new spark plug grommets are going to be needed. Still unsuccessful at changing the #6 plug w/o swearing. #lifegoals
