Operation: How to remove the cylinder head of a Mini

Do you want to remove the cylinder head of your Mini yourself? Let's see how to do it in this video. We pull the lever to open the engine compartment located at the bottom left of the dashboard and lift the front hood, we secure the same. The coils are found near the plastic motor cover. We raise the plastic clip and go to disconnect the power cable, we grab the coil with our hands and rotate it to the right and then to the left, until it comes out of the head, we disconnect all the coils and all the terminals of the supply. We unscrew the locking pins of the cylinder head, then, we remove the cover from the engine block. Let's compare the two pieces as in the video and reassemble the piece following the various steps backwards.
