Hey Ya'all! I'm Chris, and I'm new here. I was referred here from a friend. I'm getting ready to do a headgasket swap on my 87 4.0 tommorow. I realize that there are some easy parts to remove, but I have a few specific questions.
First of all, can anyone tell me after I get the intake, exhaust, fuel ect off, and I take off the valve cover, do I have to loosen the lash before untorquing the head? How do I adjust the lash to make sure that its correct?? I'm used to 2.0L DOHC stuff.
Is there anyone here who has done their own HG swap? Anything I should look for? Any special tools I need besides a Torque Wrench???
Thanks guys!!
