BenH_Ke70 Posted January 14, 2012 Report Posted January 14, 2012 First of all I have never pulled an engine apart before. closest i've come is pulling a carby off a moto and what not. I took off the cam cover, pulled off the fuel system and the headers, got the cams out... where do i go from here? what holds the head to the block? is it just the headgasket sealing it on or is there other bolts somewhere.. haha I know how nooby this must sound, but hey gotta learn somehow Quote
BenH_Ke70 Posted January 14, 2012 Author Report Posted January 14, 2012 ok forget that hahaha i found them, but the have a weird head, not like a regular bolt head they almost look like a spline from something, 10mm is too small and 11mm socket is slipping on the bolt, strangeee... would they be imperial size? this is a 2001 model engine wtf Quote
Des Posted January 14, 2012 Report Posted January 14, 2012 12 point socket. 100% sure its not imperial. Quote
BenH_Ke70 Posted January 14, 2012 Author Report Posted January 14, 2012 thanks mate, only got a 6 point socket, and couldn't find imperial one to fit, that makes sense tho, the bolts looks as though its designed for a 12 point socket.. conclusion, need better tools haha Quote
Des Posted January 14, 2012 Report Posted January 14, 2012 Repco tools are cheap and most of them have a life time warranty. Quote
