I'm a new member and can't really figure out the right way to post so this is the best I can do. I have two dead cylinders on my engine and, having read the book, I have gotten down to the point where I have all the head nuts off...one stud came out. I'm wondering why I need to remove the studs before I remove the head. Of course I'm trying to see if I an avoid using the $80 dollar stud removal tool. I'm sure there must be a good reason why I couldn't pry the head off then take the studs out for inspection using vice grips or some other method. I'm not in a real hurry to move ahead with this project, but don't need to waste a lot of time either. Best wishes to you all and thanks in advance if anyone takes it upon themselves to offer me some good advice. Once I figure this forum out I guess I'll be around a while.
