Another thing I recommend doing is replacing the plastic throttle linkage sockets with the old-style metal ones. The plastic ones are prone to breaking and when they do, you'll be stranded with a car that just idles. -Aaron

I haven't replaced them on the 602 yet, but I was able to ge4t except #3 (I think) on the 603 with a long 1/4" extension, swivel joint, and deep 12mm socket. It wasn't that bad. Of course, when I did take the manifold off to shim the ALDA, I took the opportunity to change the WRONG glow plug. So,
