In the interest of a clean, therefor, cooler running engine, I'm taking mine apart. It's a good thing too.
I'm going as far as pulling the heads so I can get to the tins under the cylinders. that's where all the grease and gunk has collected and I don't know a better way to clean under there. Also, I want to seal up the ports where the EGR was plugged into the head. In my procrastinating about pulling the heads I have come up with a few random questions. Here we go, Where does the EGR come out inside the head? In the runner to the intake valve or the combustion chamber itself? Is it possible to weld up the EGR ports or is tapping and filling with a screw pretty much it? If the oil drains back through the push rod tubes, how does it get to the heads in the first place? Should I loosen the heads in reverse order of the installation torque sequence? Loosen in steps, or all at once? are there any particular issues with the heads on a '76 2.0 I should look for? I'll leave it there for now. O.K... Discuss P.S. Thanks. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) |
