1.4.0.1. CYLINDER HEAD — REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION

A special socket may be required to undo the cylinder head bolts. The engine will have to be lifted out of its mountings, i.e. a suitable jack will have to be available.

Remember that the cylinder head bolts are tightened in a different manner. Before removal ensure that you know the type of head fitted.

  • Disconnect the battery plus cable. Push the cable to one side to make sure it cannot jump back accidentally.
  • Drain the cooling system.
  • Remove the spare wheel.
