What tool req for removing head bolts?
Removing the head today. I see head bolts below cams; and possibly 2 down the middle. This doesn't look like a tool I have. What's the name\size of this tool so that I can pick it up early this morning?
thanks steve 96 KA24DE |

Its a giant Allen Wrench there are two types, one looks like an "L" and the other one come as a ratchet attachment, I cant remember the size but I think it s a ??20??
Do not remove the ones in the center those are not head studs, only the ones under the cams

10mm hex socket. Buy a quality one, they're tight enough to twist/break a cheap tool. I've even got a Craftsman socket that looks like a pretzel due to some fool overtorquing the head.

Crosswise Outside -> in for removal crosswise and inside -> out for installation. Every engine is like this. The #'d bolts in the FSM help to illustrate this point. Do not remove cam caps or a head on any aluminum motor... hell any engine, straight front to back or back to front
