A list but probably not exhaustive: -
Remove all the coolant hoses, spark plug wires, sensor wire and fuel lines.
Remove the inlet and exhaust manifolds.
Remove the head bolts in the reverse order of tightening i.e. release the
ends first and work your way into the centre.
Remove the head from the engine.
Dismantle the rocker shaft from the head.
Keep the valves, rockers, push rods and cam followers in order when
dismantling.
I use plastic zip lock freezer or sandwich bags to store these bits in, you
can write on them with a permamnent marking pen.
This is mainly for inspection and fault diagnosis.
The machine shop should be able to repair and pressure test the head, re-cut
the seats, grind the valves and re-face the cam followers and rockers for
you.
Then these items can be re-assembled anywhere since they will have fresh
surfaces.
Check the rocker arm shaft for wear, they can be badly worn where the
rockers pivot.
I had to get mine hard chromed to build the surface up to stock.
"to add a little humor to your day, with cylinder #1 at tdc, i can put an
air line into the spark plug hole and it comes right out spark plug hole #2!
Might just be a head gasket???
