Uh...ok!


BTW I burn a qt every 400-500kms.

I wouldn't attempt removing the head if I was doing it for the first time and I couldn't afford something breaking.....

[Spyrogyra]

Nah... dunno if cleriq has done it before, but he's quite capable of doing it.... is the internals one has to be careful with.... losing or damaging a valve keeper and it's tears !

BTW... if the cams getting the boot....... um... PM...

you can replace the valve seals without removing the head,the procedure
requires that you apply air pressure to the cylinder through the spark plug
hole(there,s an adapter avaliable fof this). the air pressure keeps the valves
closed while you disassemble the valvetrain assembly and replace the valve
seals. please note that the seals are colour coded : white-intake, : black-
exhaust.

Man, you do what you feel you know what to do, but you will have to fill the cylinder with compressed air to keep the valves from dropping into the combustion chamber...

Me??? I would pull the head and send it to machine shop for cleaning, a 3 angle valve job, new seals and reassemble...Then, just get a new headgasket, new head bolts or ARP Head Studs, and a torque wrench...You shouldn't do things like this that have to be done once every couple of years in a half ass way...
Do it right the first time...Its not like you are wasting money to do it like I would do it...

Save your money to do it right and in the meantime, always keep a quart of oil in the car to top off...

[stephanweaver]
