I can't get the $%^* heads off of my engine. I am basically new and would
be
prone to stupid mistakes. Is there something I can do to make this thing
come off easier? Am I missing something somewhere maybe?

Ron, did you try the Triumph rope trick?  Try to stuff some rope into the
middle cylinder
through the spark plug hole.  Then turn the engine by hand.  The piston
will come
up and press on the head and help it move.
