Thank you for this. I'm concerned that I might have a bad head gasket on my Protege so it's good to know how accessible it is. It doesn't look too bad but it looks like you need the means to take the engine block out of the car.

Hey thanks a lot! My head gasket broke a couple of days ago. I stop immediately and got it towed. It blew a hole in the radiator, but I’m hoping there was no damage to the values and cylinders. I was wondering how to check if there was any damage to the values and cylinders?

I know this video is old but don't you know about the removal bolt set process. There is a pattern you have to follow not just what ever you feel. Warped cylinder head doing it like that

Thanks a lot for this video. I just got my motor swapped and the head on the motor that was taken out was recently rebuilt so I wanted to save it and get rid of the block. I should be able to do it now. Any idea what to do with a motor block?

Thank you. Have to do mine. My coolant reservoir boiled over and overheated almost to the "H" and I assume its the head/gasket. I already replaced the radiator and the themostat&coolant before this happened. I pulled over to let it cool to normal temp, then I drove home(5 min) and pop the hood, now the reservoir is bone dry. Advice please! 2002 protege 2.0 123,xxx miles. And I always do oil&filter every 2500 miles. K&n filters no fram garbage

When you replaced the radiator and thermostat did you fill in from the radiator cap or only from the resivour

Great vid! Thank you for taking the time and explaining everything. While doing mine I accidentally mixed my camshaft caps for the exhaust side. I tried looking online and can find anything to correct my mistake. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Is it really necessary remove the cams? I have a mazda 626 98y and its seen u can extract the 10 bolts to access the gasket
@sergeantsapient4 ай бұрын
From what it looks like you need access to the bolts holding the top of the engine block in place and they're directly underneath the camshafts. It might be possible to remove them without removing the cams but I'm guessing you'd be better off taking them off.

Can the exhaust manifold simply be unbolted to get the head out, or do you have to remove the turbo And manifold to do this? I have a speed6, and hoping to get the head off without pulling the engine

I just had the heads resurfaced, i timed everything before removal.......i got the heads back, so i set the camshafts in on the heads, and the timing marks are good.....do i need to rotate the the cams still? Cause if i go a full roatation its just going to come back into alignment!!

Hey, awesome video. Very explanatory. I have a P5 that smokes on cold cranks in the morning. I’ve been told that it’s most likely the valve seals. Once you remove the head, is that job easy? Can it be done without removing the whole block? I really like the car. If I could save it from the scrap heap, I will lol
