Thanks for the info Chuck. I've got to tell ya that after sleeping on what Mark said we will live by the fix it once and fix it right rule and go ahead and pull the head. It will be a learning experience for my 16 yr. old, who is sick about this, and will hopefully restore piece of mind. One problem we now face is finding a repair manual that is more concise that the small chilton we have. For instance the section on head removal is only a few paragraphs long. I'm a fairly good shadetree mechanic, but there has got to be more to this job than that. Due to your comment about the lack of info on the CD I am somewhat discouraged. I have read all of the search posts with still no more info. I am a visual person so some exploded views with explaination would be helpful. Anybody have any online resources or links we might check out?
