Hello,
I have a 2006 f250 6.0 with 4x4 and around 197k miles.
I got a code for a cylinder 6 glowplug circuit failure so I decided to check it out. I pulled the inner fender out and used one of those harness pullers to get the harness off and of course it broke. i tried pulling on the wire and it broke as well. Then I tried the screw method and ended up just making a bigger mess out of it. Eventually i was able to pick the pieces out but a small piece of plastic dropped into the head (I saw it with a bore scope) Should I be worried? I really dont want to rip a valve cover off to try to recover one small piece of plastic. I shoved a little hose attached to a vacuum down in there and didnt see it anymore but im not 100% sure if I got it or not. I got every other piece out no metal made it in just a small piece of black plastic from the glow plug harness.
Thank you
