Hello Folks,
I am sure my head gasket is blown, thus have begun a strip down today to replace it. All going well until I got to the cover around the cam timing belt.... The outer upper piece comes off easily, but I cannot get the inner cover off... Does the other outstanding lower cover need removing first (which I think necessitates removal of the crankshaft pulley first) ? Or am I missing something silly ?
I have referred to the Haynes manual, but frankly it has sent me round in circles and left me more confused that I was to start with !
Thanks in advance for any advice,
