All Teeners
You have helped me rebuild the '74 2.0. Every system has been rebuilt with your assistance. My son has purchased a 1991 Ranger. It blew a head gasket. Cyl 1 had NO pressure. We proceeded to take off the head took off all 10 bolts ( 2.3L Pinto/Mazada engine) off the head.... Hhhhmmm, does not budge - let's get the Wood Mallet That did not work (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Hammer and wood? No, did not budge (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Hand Sledge and wood No Did not budge (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Then I put a bolt in the head on the front and on the block, tood a very large bearing spreader and cranked it until the bolts started to bend AND THEN hit it with the hand sledge Will not budge (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Within a RANGER forum a guy said that he had seen these WELDED together - I see no weld marks......really welded??? About to try the SNAKE IN THE HOLE trick using rope into the sparkplug hole once I get the CAM disconnected............... Any thoughts from the teener world please?

Had the same prob with huge Gardener diesel head - took valve train off but leave head bolts in, piston all the way at the bottom of stroke - pressurized with compressed air thru injector (you would do thru spark plug hole) or if you were really serious you could do the same w grease. Careful - could be a quite dangerous pressure release - heat up w blo torch and/or smack w hammer would prob help
