Yes, credit where it's due - Veecee and Vlade got out the crank pulley. Then Vlade and Jay_boy did most of the work of getting the head off, while Snooby took some pics and also helped carry the head out of the engine bay

I think. Did I leave anyone out? Freddie? I think you might have loosened a bolt?

I admit to having done very little... felt like I was in the way!

BTW, Veecee, you forgot to take the tensioner pulley!

I also found a screwdriver bit with a philips on one side and flat on the other - did someone leave that behind?

toby never feel like your in the way! You where you were suppose to be, asking questions and learning, think vlade will agree with me it was great sharing information between each other! Was great will do it again sometime

yeah man...

think about it. at least we got you to buy a great set of tools... as long as you don't use them for tasks they weren't designed for, then they will last a very long time!

learning is a great. 2.5 years ago i knew nothing about mechanics. now i'm not shy to disassemble and reassemble the whole damn car.

the right tools make life very easy though...

big bigups for learning man - pretty soon we'll make a mecchie out of you too!!!!

What do you mean Toby. I was drinking. Very responsibly of course. No I did not touch. I think I had my change previously with the turbo.
