WTBorrow: 3s head removal tool

Postby Bling » Mon Jul 16, 2012 12:42 am

Hoping to borrow one of the following short term. The 12 point (from what i've read) tool to remove the 10 bolts holding the head on a 3s engine. I'd buy one if I thought i'd need it again, but I doubt I will.

Anyone out west have one I could borrow for a day or two? :) cheers

If you are planning on replacing the head bolts or just junking it, a standard allen key will undo them, use the proper tool if you plan on re-using the bolts.

If they can be reused, and the motor isn't too knackered then i'll reuse them for sure. Ok to reuse them?

I imagine they will be TTY bolts so they will need to be measures before committing to re-use them.

Haha - was meaning head bolts! The tool itself is a Koken one, about $20 from memory.
