This is on the inline 6. I've got this old motor that seems to be leaking oil from the headgasket. I don't wanna pull it all appart and waste my time on a motor with 180K miles. I'd rather just throw a new one in there. The only way I'm gonna fix this one is if I can unbolt the head and lift it up off the block high enough to pull the old gasket out and stick the new one in. There are two problems that I can see:
1. cleaning the surface will be impossible
2. this will only work if the headgasket is steel and there's nothing to clean.
So what I'm asking is: do I have to pull the intake/exhaust manifolds off to do this and is is the headgasket metal?
Thanks all
