I'm getting ready to remove the head in an 87 TD. I've got most everything out of the way and was just looking at the procedure for removing the cam. It notes that I need to remove the SLS/Power steering pump and I'm concerned that the I'm going to run into high-pressure lines for the SLS. Is this true? The FSM makes no mention of being cautious with the removal of the pump, so maybe I'm just being paranoid.
Any other general comments on this procedure? I've been reading all the existing threads on it and other than following the proper sequence for removal/installation, everything seems straight forward. I'm feeling pretty optimistic at this point.
The coolant expansion tank was bone dry on this car, also the coolant temp sensor wires had been hacked to be connected to each other, rendering the temp gauge completely useless. No wonder it was overheated and continued to be driven. People are so stupid sometimes
