While I had the antifreeze drained I decided to remove my leaky block heater.



Their not as easy as removing a expansion plug (freeze plug), but with some patients it's not bad.



I used a magnet and some rags to cleaned out the port, then sanded the mating surface. I added some sealant and used a socket to install the brass expansion plug.

Of another matter, my 78 360 FI is running a little rich at idle or crawling down hills offroad so I had howell burn me another chip. The three other chips they burnt were for under load. I believe this one will get it right. I installed it today so I'll take it on a test run tomorrow night.

Thanks,

Reinstalled the distributor, set timing, and tuned the carb.

On a side note: I installed another chip in my 78 cj7 360. The idle was smoother, ran good, but a bit lean through 800-1200rpm range. Howell suggested I increase the fuel pressure by adjusting the regulator, I told them it would then change the block learn numbers overall. He agreed, and will be writing me a new chip (the 5th one). I told him if he could target the new chip between my current chip and the previous chip I should be go.
