Re: Mark V project
And I found this on the net
White or yellow grommet D2 modules would retard the timing while starter is engaging to promote easier starting, bring it back up after the engine was started, and under heavy engine load would retard the timing to reduce detonation. Yellow grommet modules have three connectors instead of two like all others, the third connector was for a vacuum sensor. Yellows are usually found on 400 engines or larger and whites are usually found on some turbo and auto 2.3 engines.
The yellow grommet module will help for hot engine restart.

Re: Mark V project
I would have guessed CB Radio based on the coax cable on it. But what do I know about Marks? Nada

Re: Mark V project
how about the same stuff you use to clean up the plastic on your headlights. Get the wipe on, wipe off variety. I forgot who makes it, maybe Armoral? Should polish it right up.
I wouldn't use any alcohol based products. It might take off the glue but will leave the plastic cloudy.

Re: Mark V project
There is a product named "GOO GONE" that works very well removing tape and sticker residue.

Re: Mark V project
Wires that could be under driver's seat -
Seat belt light sensor. If seat belt is not clicked in, with ignition switch on, the light on the instrument panel is lit.
Power seat wiring circuit
Automatic seat back latch
And some times there is wiring that goes from one side of the vehicle to the other. A courtesy light circuit would be an example of that

Re: Mark V project
Oh the joy!
Stuck valves and these look like exhaust valves. They are stuck because the engine sat unused for a long period of time with debris between the valve stem and valve guide. Varnish, carbon or other debris in there. The cause is any one or all of these:
Poor engine oil
Poor engine oil filter
Extended oil change intervals
Thermostat that has been removed or is a lower temperature rating than spec
Worn valve stem seals
A possible quick fix - tap on the valve stem. I would use a piece of metal on top of the valve stem and then tap on that. You can get rather aggressive because you have little to risk. The other alternative is to remove the head. If you beat too hard on the valve stem and wreck it, you still have to remove the head. If you are successful you do not need to remove head.
And stack the deck in your favor.
Rotate the crank shaft so the piston is not on TDC for that cylinder
Remove spark plugs
Spray and spray a lot of penetrating oil! In and around the valve spring and into the combustion chamber through the spark plug hole. May be while you are turning the crank. The idea is to get oil onto the valve stem between the stem and guide.
If it does not work the head has to come off and the tech will be beating the valve through the head out into the combustion chamber. Then replacing the guide.
