change head gasket

[@bj76052]

Did anyone not get the fact he is tightening the head bolts down ignoring the sequence for torquing plus reusing the old head bolts especially on the 2.0 is not recommended whatsoever. Personally I would never hire this guy to work on anything bigger than a cheap bicycle he shouldn't be posting videos someone's going to distort a cylinder head doing it the way he is showing. Torquing bolts in sequence per the OEM instructions are there for very simple and logical reasons not to mention to assure precise results within specs

Maybe start the video before you take head off? Anyone can put gasket in place, the hard part is getting the rest of the car out of the way! Timing cover, belt, pulleys, pumps, engine mounts, exhaust, harnesses, fuel lines, all that shit.

After watching him install the head it's better that he didn't show how he removed it. Find another instructional video. This one is not what you want to do.

@Ameila-h2z I'd love to. Unfortunately, information on the late model 2.0l engines is rare, and this is the best I could find... I ended up using data for the 2.4, which was all kinds of wrong as it has a totally different valvetrain design, but i managed with alot of guesswork. Atleast I knew where to find the sensors i guess, not that this video helped with that either...
