Please Help!!!
 

Daughter was out in the garage with me last night and some how managed to drop a plastic wire connector in one of the cooling holes in the head...any ideas on how to get it out without removing the intake and head

Re: Please Help!!!
 

first, are you sure it is a cooling passage?
if its an air intake passage the connector should stop at the valve pocket, unless it meets an open valve.
first thing i would try would be to use a piece of coat hanger wire and make a ball of masking tape on it, sticky side out, and try to pull it out.
the only other idea i can think of is compressed air but i am not sure that would be the way to go. good luck.

I’m thinking a vacuum cleaner might work. It will need to be an open hole somewhere down line for this to work well ~ (air flow).

I went through this a few weeks ago with my 20 MO son….only it was needle bearings!!!
I ended up pulling the heads back off to check.
Ended up not being any thing in there, but better safe than sorry.

First, can you see it? If you can, you'll have to come with some ingenuity.
Sticky substances on coat hangers as beautimus mentioned or some suction device. Maybe a small rubber hose attached to the suction side of a small vacuum cleaner.
