[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 76800, member: 82"] Removing the plugs and ATF may help, but being a diesel, i'd like to pull the head and have a look at what condition it is in. If there is any rust in the top of the head, if you crank it, it will hit the piston. There isn't much space between the top of the head and the piston. You are looking at maybe 1-2mm, it's not much at all. You would be amazed what you can straighten out on the cage, i have one that fell off a truck, it was very badly bent. It's not perfect now, but it's a lot better than it was. [/QUOTE]
