When I did mine it was exhaust manifold (mine wasn't a crossover it was separate Plugs for each). Heat exchanger anode/plug, blue plug by raw water impeller, pull impeller (buy the tool 5 minute job). Anode/plug v-drive. Change oil, all 16 plugs, drain all ballast, pulled rear bags to dry out lockers, changed all 3 ballast impellers....4hr job

Got my impeller out will definitely be buying the tool. Need to order new impeller, and I need to do the ballast pumps but need tp fond them first lol. Plugs will get done one night this week. Actually they look to be a fairly simple job. Went to pull ce ter drain plug and the same gorilla that over torqued my oil filter must have put center drain plug in there too. As its surrounded by the tank om wondering if I cant take a water meter key and slip over the t handle and get it loose. Pissed me off that its so tight I cant remove it but I guess I also dont have to worry bout it coming out.

I just use needle nose pliers and work top and bottom and it comes out fairly easy. WD40 helps

i would kind of avoid WD40 and use soapy water. Dawn dish soap.

I have used a tool I made to remove mine for the same reason you stated. Now I hand tighten it and remove the center plug each time and it saves the pain. If you leave yours in the water or lift all season that is certainly different.
The ballast pumps are behind the false walls in the rear lockers. 3 Pump system there should be 1 on the starboard side and 2 port side. Just remove 2 phillips screws on the top and the 2 holding the aluminum foot to the bottom and they lift out of the way. The kits I bought came with new brass screws so I wasn't worried about the old ones. A couple I had to use vise grips to spin them because they stripped out using a flat head screw driver.
Spark plugs are easy just time consuming. I mean 16 plugs...really Ford! The topside ones are wasted spark anyway but whatever.2015 Moomba Mojo Surf Edition
