Hi Ferg,
Loosening the Allen screws does not allow swiveling the elbows. You
need to remove the flange/elbow sub assembly from the engine, then
unscrew the elbow from the flange, clean the treads on both the elbow
and the flange with a solvent (acetone works for that), cover the treads
with Loctite 243 or equivalent, screw the elbow in the flange, fit to
the engine with a new o-ring, swivel the elbow in the suitable position,
let the loctite cure before operation. I had to do that on cyl 1 and 2
because I had a leak at the treads.
Hope that helps.
Regards

re-routing 17mm water tubes rearward which in turn requires swiveling
the
applicable bent tubes through the sockets on the heads by loosening the
M6x20 Allen screws.
