I wanted to replace the name plate on my 5sfe engine as it's all scratched up (The one that says 16 VALVE). Is there a particular way to pry that name plate off? Is it glued on?
After some further reading, is the replacement label (11292-74130) Just a sticker with the words 16 VALVE on it? Does the part that the words are on NOT come off? (I'm at work so I can't exactly look closely right now) This post has been edited by Sinyk: Mar 24, 2009 - 12:16 PM --------------------  |

Well, if it is just a sticker, is it hard to scrape/clean off the old one?

it's just a sticker, peel it off and use a razor blade or knife to get the residue off, then good to go.

Sweet. Thanks batman!
My spark plugs were installed with the wire facing the front of the car and one of the plastic retainers scuffed up the label pretty badly, so for $1.79, My engine will look that much newer!  I might even give the valve cover the 'waveydavey' treatment while it's off. -------------------- |
