Ah, ok. The cylinder heads are coming off.
Next questions. How do I get the engine to TDC and how do I know it's at TDC? I'm guessing that I need to paint mark the timing before I remove the cylinder heads?
After I install the new valve springs and reinstall the cylinder heads, I will be installing new timing belt parts. I just want to make sure I do everything right before I start.
