ZD30 Why cant I lift the head, all bolts out, is there something ive forgotten ??
Hi, Ive come to a halt, and need help please.
Removing the head without removing inner timing cover.
Head is stripped, all bolts are out,, yes and the two behind timing chain tensioner.
I have broken the seal and can lift the head at the rear about 8mm.
At the front if I rock it from side to side it seems to pivot at a poiny just below the gear that conects the two cams and drives them.
I can lift either side 5 0r 6 mm, one side at a time but not both together.
I am wondering if there is a locating dowel in there. I have searched lots of pics and I cant find any sutch dowel.
As I am prying the head upwards I get to the point where I dont want to apply any more force,, somethings gonna break. ??
I will be replacing the head but dont want to damage the timing cover.
Any ideas please.
