thanks for all your replys, thanks bill good picture came in real handy,
took the radiator off last night fans and pipes, not alot left to do now i think before removing the head.

ive got alot of built up oill under aroiund the engine have no idea where its coming from, can i get a pressure pressure washer on the engine bag or do you reckon that could muck up the electrics?

before i takethe head off do i time the engine by the crank so the 2 pulleys are aligned uop with the back plate? then pull the belt off or can i do this after?

i heard the crank has to come off to replace the belt why is this.?

still unsure about the head though. can the cams be left in to skim it or do i need to remove cams and valves?

alot of questions i know but wouldnt be able to do it without you guys
thanks. more later with some pics. andy.
