I'd be interested in the answer too as I'm having the same problem. There's the rope trick that has been used with some success. Nylon rope is fed into 2 of the cylinders and then the engine is turn

This thread could add new meaning to the scene in the old Spagetti Westerns where someone in the mob yells out..."would somebody go get a rope." And all Clint can do a snarl! Tom (don't call me Lind

Removing the head can be an easy job or it can take literrally take days. For me, it took weeks. I tried soaking, an engine lift, the rope trip(you'll most likey get many responces dealing with this

just make sure it's a dead blow hammer, and that you haven't forgotten any bolts, screws, or marmots that might be holding it on --

Total empathy. I have been precisely where you are. First, put the hammer down. Parts of the head can actually be quite delicate and it's crucial that the surface where the gasket lies doesn't get da

I was successful with a big hammer (don't remember how many pounds) and a thick piece of wood (approx. 40 cm long). Putting the piece of wood against the head and hammering on it, repeating it from

I just went through the same exercise on my TR3. The bigest lesson for me was that persistance and patience are THE key. After lots of help from the list I managed to get head off. I did not want to
