Head Gasket replacement

Randy Bishop 30 March 2005 06:23:32
 What's the best way to tear down the 2.5 head in a '90 Horizon - pull it
with manifolds and disassemble on the bench or pull off the pieces while
head still bolted to block? Going to attempt my first head gasket
replacement soon as it warms up! Could use any tips/pointers.

 remove the head with intake and exhaust,,very easy job, the hardest thing
you may run into and removing the exhaust flange bolts,

 John,

I cut a notch in the bottom fender well about two inches tall by four inches
wide to get easy access to the allen bolts that hold on the lower cover.
This area is absolutely non-structural and made access a snap. I used a
cut-off wheel to cut the metal. It took less time to make the cut than to
type this up.
