Default Re: How to remove head studs

Take your time.
soak the studs for some time leading up to the job.
heat the stud , then let it cool for a minute or so, keep squirting stuff on like Inox through the process. get the stud remover on BUT think about the angles your working on as they are offset as you can see, so THINK about where the force is working as you can bust them easy.. what I did was load up the breaker bar and hold it, don't just keep going, back it off after 15 seconds , do it again load it up, use a lot of 'feel" you'll feel them just start to turn , then steady , steady, still think about angle of the breaker bar if they're tight. I only broke one when I did mine and it surprised me, just went..
If your engine is in bad condition and not touched for many years then good luck .
