VN Motor welsch plugs

[clinster73]

Hey can anybody tell me if you have to take out the motor to do the drivers side welsch plugs on a VN V6 motor?
They are visable but do you need to take out the motor to change them?
Cheers.

No, its just ALOT easier to have engine out. You have to drop exhaust manifolds....

Hahahaha funny as, i'm having mine done tomorrow. Just gonna have em all replaced though.

[azkwazere]

How much they charge for that? Few hours work there...Whats the quote?

Worth it as the orignal ones where copper i think and they rusted out, or brass... i cant remeber, its a metal which eventually leaks out.

i done mine bout 4 months ago, was simple when engine out.. wouldnt even attempt with engine in unless it was on a hoist and you could get underneath it. even then engine/box removed as a whole is so simple to do.
