No. Gen2. You have the K24 engine, not the older B20.

No symptoms (at first!) from the dangerous condition of inadequate

it will float out of your pocket!



> Do I need to remove the valve cover?




Yes. There is no way around that. The valves are hiding under there,
concealing their dark secrets...

Anybody get this from amazon? It looks like an exact knockoff of the 60
