head off. V70-XC70 2006


Failure between 2&3 is "normal failure", most often seen.

It's all off!! Now, get the head cleaned/trued. The finicky part comes next, assembly with new bolts and gasket. While the head is off, clean some of the other bits you removed just to keep the oil/grease from spreading to the nice parts like exhaust and intake manifold.

Are you going to replace the valve guides? There are 20 of them, but this is the only time it can be done. A lot of work, but it is on the work bench, not leaning over the engine bay!
