Two steps forward, one step back
You gotta love the little ones…I got my new roller rockers in yesterday. I went out to see how they looked on the engine. My 20mo son was out there with me and I noticed him fiddling with the engine. I looked at what he was dong and seen 2 small needle bearings resting in a bolt hole.
 No big deal, i'ts not a through hole, but what if he dropped one into my spark plug hole! So now, I’m going to get another set of head gaskets and pull the head to make sure it’s ok. Just wanted to make you all laugh.  s/t

Re: Two steps forward, one step back
could you use a magnet on a stick and put it down the hole?
