Finally, i started the project and have the head off....everything ready to go back in place....except, little guide sleeves for the rocker assemblies...the dealer may have them today (Sat.) otherwise i need to wait till Tues.!!!!

I started the job on Thursday....my goal was to immediately pull the prechambers to inspect them so if i needed a new one I could order Thurs and probably have by Fri. I was in such a hurry to remove them that I pulled the first prechember out BEFORE I REMOVED THE GLOW PLUG!!!!!!! No wonder it was a little difficult....it sheared the tip of the glow plug right off with almost no damage to the prechamber. After that I slowed down and took my time.

So far so good.
