Next, we disconnect all electrical connections such as spark plug wires, throttle cable, starter cable, etc. Then we remove the oil vapor recovery tube and remove the exhaust manifold and valve cover to remove the cylinder head. Once this is done, we remove the old cylinder head gasket, clean the pistons and cylinder head thoroughly, and finally install a new gasket and reassemble everything following the reverse procedure.
