Hi everyone,
I just got off a phone call with a mate who has a very interesting problem that i'm not sure how to fix!
He has managed to drop a carby screw into the intake manifold, its a single plain manifold on a 2v headed 351 and he thinks its fallen into the drivers side head but can't see the screw, and has no idea which runner its fallen into!
I suggested a magnet on a wire but he can't find one small enough to fit down there, so my question is, How in the hell can he get it out without removing either head or the intake manifold?
He's never changed a head gasket or intake manifold gasket and I really don't want to have to do it for him. I'm all out of ideas though, so if anyone has any suggestions at all please let me know!
