HELP!

[350matt]

Well if it ain't broke don't fix it adage certainly hold true in this case, while trying to check my cam timing I've managed to drop one the little aluminium spacers down the inlet port into cylinder 8.......

Any ideas?

Alternativly is it possible to remove the cylinder head with it in the car?

Or is it an engine out job....

It on a 4.2 cerby by the way

Matt'feeling very sheepish' feasey

Its definitly in the cylinder as the engine no longer turns over (by hand I should say)

VICTORY!!
after vacuuming, blowing , huffing and puffing with with bits of sticky tape etc
I've managed to finangle the spacer out again by fiddling around with a pair of very thin flat wire hooks I made.

Those spacers will be glued on from now on!



Thanks to everyone for their suggestions
