Took them off earlier but thanks for replying! Now looks like this http://m1302.photobucket.com/albumview/albums/BenM942/828BEAA5-17EC-441C-AE00-80A700D756B4-2682-00000137676F7585_zpsf8e8a3d7.jpg.html?o=3

Ok it's only that in the Haynes manual that the sequence is the same as what Fred put and the pic shows the fly wheel on the right hand side but mines on the left so I flipped the sequence over?

Perfect cheers! Sorry for keep going on haha

Sorry that's what I meant! Ok just double checking before I clean it and start putting it back together. Is this like your scraper http://www.discount-tools-uk.co.uk/product/332358/razor-edge-scraper-and-5-blades-0-28-500 Can get this one quicker than getting one of the Internet

Better pictures of head, just want to make sure everything is normal? http://m1302.photobucket.com/albumview/albums/BenM942/D84E7C2E-4654-432F-B4C2-3CB635E8B530-2893-0000014A7D6A2B40_zpsfde04d58.jpg.html?o=1&newest=1...

Chisel do the job?

Ok thanks for the help mate!

Going to take a lot of cleaning! How come my triangle coolant jackets are a lot bigger and up against bores compared to that head?

Ok will see what scrapers I have around the garage, cheers

Ok thanks for your help! Was told a drill with a wire brush works?

What's the best thing to use to clean it? Don't want to damage anything

Ok thanks! Will get cleaning now and post a nice shiny pic after haha

That's with the head gasket off? Just doesn't look right to me, the triangle wholes by the pistons worry me?

Doesn't look good to me? http://m1302.photobucket.com/albumview/albums/BenM942/828BEAA5-17EC-441C-AE00-80A700D756B4-2682-00000137676F7585_zpsf8e8a3d7.jpg.html?o=0&newest=1

Spent enough in the car already, it's not worth putting the money in

Stupid question I know the head bolts on mine are female lol

Male*

Take it the head bolts are E16 then? Will buy a set anyway! Just had a quick look at head bolts and some say they are make torx?

Yeah will probly just get a set then, that way I will always have enough for other jobs I suppose

Thanks for the reply, any chance you know what size they are lol? And I bet a few people do follow the sequence in the manual without flipping it round the right way? Cheers

Also am I right in saying the head bolts are female torx 12E? Swinging past halfords tomorrow and want to make sure I get the right size

I've got the head bolt sequence in my Haynes manual for my 1.4 8v MK2 but just want to double check I've got it right. If your looking straight at the engine from the front of the car will it be this? 10-6-2-3-7 9-5-1-4-8 Just like to double check, cheers

Thanks but I've done it. And yes I can do it I was just looking for advice. Would rather learn how to do stuff myself than take it to a garage and have a massive bill.

Didn't think of that, cheers

??

I'm changing my head gasket so I've obviously removing the cambelt, everything is removed but I can't undo the bottom nut on the wheel that the alternator belt goes too? Any help or advice on how to do it please?

Ok thanks

TDC? Sorry lol

Ok thought that was going to be the case! Thanks again

Ok cheers mate, not hard then lol
