Replacing Head Gasket

Post by -=Exiled=- Chris »

so im on the task of replacing my head gasket and im hoping thatll fix my problems with my car, if you follow on .net's post board youl know the story, anywho i started out on it yesterday, basicialy i cleaned the garage and made room for the shit to be laid out so i wouldnt lose anything, then i took the hood off and put it to the side.

today was day 2, heres my post from .net:
Today I lifted the front of the car so it?s about a nice 2 feet off the ground or so for me to work around and under

I kinda liked the way it looked with only the rear raised and the hood off, it looked cool, except for the damn grill

I started disassembly today, unhooked a gang of wires, sensors etc?
Drained the coolant, removed the oil return hose, the breather and tube, the intake, the throttlebody, the front strut bar, the 1st CAT and exhaust manifold, the coil pack, the EGR solenoid, the A/C belt, thermostat housing and hose, the coolant return line, that?s all I can think of right now
Here what it looked like with just the hood and FSB gone

heres what it looks like close to the end of today

I wanted to get more done, but when I went inside to print out some more shit from alldata I ended up falling asleep in my chair, so I figured im too tired to continue working on the car for today (ive been up for about 43 and a half hours as I write this) so im going to go to sleep now and continue what I can tomorrow.

The only thing im worried about is the specialty timing belt adjuster tool and some sort of tensioning tool that I don?t have, im scared to remove the timing belt, im not really good with timing ,lol

Hey Chris, I'm going to be selling another fuel rail for stock fuel systems. It will be polished and have powdercoated brackets and ends. Let me know if you're interested.

all i really wanted was the AN fitting, im allready planning on polishing out my fuel rail while its out, the AN fitting was the selling point on that last one, my friend bought it but i doubt hell be able to get any use outta it.
it seems like a pretty smooth piece, id say only about 30 min to an hour of sanding and some mothers polish would shine that bitch right up.

i gotta go buy a die grinder to port out those parts im taking out, my dremel is too damn small and those bits are too damn expensive
