I bought a 426 hemi with Indy aluminum heads.
Previous owner installed plug tubes with black silicone sealant around the o-rings for the plug tubes in the heads.
Is this common?
There was still oil in the well around the plugs so it was not doing a great job of helping the o-rings to seal.
Plus, it is a real fun chore trying to get the silicone off the head inside the plug well.
Anyone run across this before?
THANKS,
