http://www.sr20forum.com/img/data/500/11102circle-med.jpg I'm taking off the head and cannot figure out how to get that one out. There are 2 of them.

That's not a head bolt. Ya don't have to take it out to get the head off. BTW thats one nasty motor :eek2:

Christ, have you EVER changed the oil on that motor?

That is by far the nastiest looking SR20 I have ever seen.

Very impressive, I'm surprised you even saw that under there.

Your Nissan pass has been revoked.

John

I changed my oil every 3K or less. The guy before me must not have. I have only had the car for about a month

damn.... looks like the oil was NEVER changed.

Holy crap. Do an engine flush right NOW.

Holy cow I think thats the worst one I have ever seen!

ya its deffinitly is dirty. Doesn't matter that much because it is not going to be running anymore.

about all that motor is good for is an anchor! sorry.

The only solution I see for that head is to be dip into acid!

That allen plug is something for coolant. dont take it out. If you do you'll need an impact screwdriver with an allen socket.

lmao if you take it off with your hands with out breaking anything i own you a 24 of beer LMAO i broke 2 tools trying to take my head off LOL

Alright i get a 24 pack than :D Nothing borken cept my finger nail in half but that wasn't with taking off the head.

Your motor looks like the den where the aliens spawn from in all those movies.

Sorry to hear about your fingernail. I usually get a similar bonus whenever I touch my car.

The motor in the P10 Geo bought several years ago was that bad. Naturally, it had a rod knock so the Beast motor was swapped into it.

ha ha yeah it does!
a good acid bath after a trip to thhe solvent tank and then bake it might help...a little. a new head would be less money and work :)

Holy crap. Do an engine flush right NOW.
I would personally recommend against doing that, only because all of the particles and gunk will break apart, and drop down into the oiling system, and you can possibly spin a bearing, clog the oil pick up, cam oiling tubes, ect, ect. If you are pulling the head, clean it then, if not, just put the v/c back on and look away, act like you never saw it. and change your oil more often, it should clean it up a little bit as well, little by little. a small chunk of that junk can ruin your day with a quickness.

Well beat you to spinning the bearing. Already done. I have another DE than i am putting in.
