Thanks!

its not that hard. you just gotta get in there and kill it!

the best way to identify a leak there is to grab a gritty pillow, lay it across the core support, a flashlight, a inspection mirror.

look at the back cover. 5 bolts!

gotta have a gearwrench. use a regular wrench to break the bolts free. gear wrenches tend to slip.

get the bolts off by feel. forget looking at them.

the fun part is cleaning the head.
razor blade and or emry cloth. just DO IT!!!

they use a gasket. use the slightest amount of rtv to hold the gasket on.

i did one last week in 50 minutes
