Hi All,
It took about a week of spray-spray tap-tap, but I finally got my head off in order to replace it with a used head I got from MM.
I'm not an experienced mechanic so I'm looking for some feedback on these images I took.
1. It looks to me like the valve on cyl 3 is stuck in the closed position. How do I open that?
2. Whats the best/safest way to remove all the gunk from the head and inside the cylinders. Most of this is gasket material from prying up the head.
3. The studs you see in their posts....Can i just keep these in when I put the new head on? The ones that came out are studs that got removed along with their nuts. I'm going to replace these.
4. It appears that there is some stuff stuck down inside the valve of cyl 1. Any way to get at that stuff without removing the valves?
