Dear, the parts I just sold paid for that part ;)  Group: Members Posts: 1,568 Joined: 26-December 02 From: Williamsburg, VA Member No.: 16  |
There is about 1/8"-1/4" of threads above the head?
Can I remove this myself with standard tools (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) |

Removing and re-installing the heads on the flat six is a little involved. If you haven't done it before, the I wouldn't recommend going it alone. You must remove the cams, cam towers, chain tensioners and boxes, and the oil return tubes. Tools you must have include the cam nut crowfoot and cam socket to remove the adjustable timing sprokets on the cams, as well as a dial indicator and Porsche style holder to correctly time the cams when you put it back together. If you don't know what I'm talking about then don't do it. I don't mean to sound like a jerk, but it's a expensive engine to learn on. |
