In the process of removing the HEs from the 2.2 engine, was able to open the Allen fine but there are three bolts (2 passenger side and 1 driver side) at the front cylinders, how to get them off, seems to be impossible to get a ratchet in and my wrenches see to also not fit very well. Afraid I might damage one of the nuts.

I used 12mm nuts on those. .
I have a couple of wrenches I bent, and a 1/4 drive 12 mm socket will do the trick. . It's a pain in the butt and small hands and long fingers help. . Besides the dash nuts, it's one of the harder places to get to. . The 1/4 inch angle drive thin wall socket is great for getting them snug. . then a bent wrench to tighten fully but it's a 1/6 turn at a time job. . Attached image(s) |
