Default Headgasket do it your self ?

I know I should buy a helms manual but I currently don't use credit cards over the net. If you can buy one from the dealer then let me know. I just need to start working on this thing tonight so I can get it done in the next week or so. I am just looking for some basic yet informative instructions on what to tear down, what to look out for and how to put it back kinda stuff. Thanks in advance for any direction.

what to tear down bro?

there's only couple trick thing when you pull the head, there's a little washer thing on the chain gear you need to catch. The chain tensioner, etc.

yes you can mail order or order the helm in dealer, it's listed right in your owner's manual actually.

invest in one, you will not able to know the torque pattern and spec to check, it worth the 80 buck just for the time you need to waste if you happen to overtorque and snap one bolt.

Yea I am just more concerned with replacing the cams and valve train and making sure that everything goes back into its place. I guess I wll just stop by the dealership tomorrow and see if I can pick one up.
