you guys are on the ball today! thanks so much for the pictures and advice! I have just about had it with this job so far haha it has just been a royal pain in my rear since i started. When I pulled that banjo bolt while laying in my yard I was absolutely covered in oil so im going to hope when I try to remove that plate it will not have much oil left in it haha I do not have anything lower than where the banjo fitting goes so im assuming i have a mechanical gauge. Any pointers for removing that plate? I really cant see anything under there and just going by feel to get the original banjo off. I need to take the toothbrush and go to town like suggested. I want to get as prepared as possible so I dont start the job, get filthy, then realize I need another tool, part i dont have, nothing grinds my gears like not being able to finish a job once started. Thanks again guys for the super fast and detailed answers!!!
