[Xist]

Fuel filter washers, various exhaust fasteners, and I could not get the intake stud all of the way in. In fact, it came back out! All of the instructions that I find say to tighten two nuts together and then when you tighten the outer one it drives in the stud, but everyone does this with the manifold off. Reinstalling the manifold was when the studs got stripped, so I do not want to go that route for a few reasons. The other studs only have about one full thread extending past the nut, which is not nearly enough to fasten another nut. I put Permatex's red threadlocker on it, which says it needs twenty-four hours to fully cure. Hopefully that will work.

The engine does not sound right. I am going to fill up the radiator and drop it off at the mechanic's Monday morning.

The valve cover is leaking oil, so that will need to be replaced [again] if anyone needs to do a valve lash or whatever.
