240Z: Crank pulley, bolt-ons and head bolts removed
So continued the work on the engine:
1) Removed the oil pan:
2) then started with the crank pulley not (actually i allready did this last time..)
But somehow distroyed the ratchet (probably there was too much force with me :D)
Anyway – i got it off:
Then started to remove the headbults as metioned in the service manual using this “IKEA” type tool plus a rubber hammer:
But then figured out to reach all of the head studs i need to remove this pipe first:
Which had some crazy corroded stuff inside:
And then had all of the bolts off. Need to get a new ratched to get the cam gear off and then i s hould be able to remove the entire cylinder head:

Hey, I’ve got the same Stanley ratchet. is it the one that twist the handle and it ratchets?

no it’s just a cheap standard ratchet 🙂

Ratchets should not be used to undo large bolts. For this you should use a ‘breaker bar’…
