As its basically the same engine as found in a Fergie, 'Daisy's' head was difficult to budge due to earlier coolant and crud seepage around the rear head studs from a defective head gasket. I made a

I read about ther rope trick also. Get the piston at the bottom of the stroke, and insert a soft rope throught the spark plug hole until no more will fit. Then turn the engine over. I haven't tried t

There is always the "rope trick". Pull the plugs, get your 10' length of .375" - .5" dia rope, and feed in to spark plug hole of offending end of motor. Compressing this soft material inside the cyl

I have a little experience with pulling TR3 heads. I finally solved my head gasket crisis with a new block. The double nut trick works great, but on some studs, there is hardly any room for 2 nuts. A
