The video walks through loosening and removing the cylinder head in proper sequence, labeling bolts and pushrods for reassembly, and ends with the blown gasket exposed and visible on camera. Part 1 of a series; best for DIY owners facing the same repair.
An owner-operator sharing hands-on work from their own farm, explicitly noting they are not a professional mechanic.
The head bolts are loosened slowly in reverse numeric order, starting at eighteen and working down to one, doing a little at a time on each side.
Pushrods are labeled with an F for front and stuck in order into a piece of cardboard so each returns to its original spot, and bolts are threaded back into their holes or photographed.
After peeling the gasket off, there is a visible crack in the ring with blowout around it and signs of antifreeze, though the block itself shows no cracks or spots.
