Install Cooling System Tester Special Tool # 7700 or equivalent to pressure cap neck. Start the engine and observe
the tester’s pressure gauge. If gauge pulsates with every power stroke of acylinder a combustion pressure leak is
evident.
CHEMICAL TEST METHOD
Combustion leaks into the cooling system can also be checked by using Bloc-Chek Kit Special Tool # C-3685-A or
equivalent. Perform test following the procedures supplied with the toolkit.
REMOVAL
REMOVAL - LEFT CYLINDER HEAD
1. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
2. Raise the vehicle on a hoist.
3. Disconnect the exhaust pipe at the left side
exhaust manifold.
4. Drain the engine coolant. Refer to COOLING SYS-
TEM.
5. Lower the vehicle.
6. Remove the intake manifold (Refer to 9 - ENGINE/
MANIFOLDS/INTAKE MANIFOLD - REMOVAL).
7. Remove the master cylinder and booster assembly.
Refer to section 5 brakes.
8. Remove the cylinder head cover (Refer to 9 -
ENGINE/CYLINDER HEAD/CYLINDER HEAD COVER(S) - REMOVAL).
9. Remove the fan shroud and fan blade assembly
(Refer to 7 - COOLING/ENGINE/FAN DRIVE VIS-
COUS CLUTCH - REMOVAL).
10. Remove accessory drive belt (Refer to 7 - COOL-
ING/ACCESSORY DRIVE/DRIVE BELTS -
REMOVAL).
11. Remove the power steering pump and set aside.
12. Rotate the crankshaft until the damper timing
mark is aligned with TDC indicator mark.

13. Verify the V8 mark on the camshaft sprocket is at the 12 o’clock position. Rotate the crankshaft one turn if
necessary.
14. Remove the crankshaft damper (Refer to 9 - ENGINE/ENGINE BLOCK/VIBRATION DAMPER - REMOVAL).
15. Remove the timing chain cover (Refer to 9 - ENGINE/VALVE TIMING/TIMINGBELT / CHAIN COVER(S) -
REMOVAL).
16. Lock the secondary timing chains to the idler
sprocket using Special Tool 8515.

CAUTION: Do not lay the cylinder head on its gasket sealing surface, due to the design of the cylinder head
gasket any distortion to the cylinder head sealing surface may prevent thegasket from properly sealing
resulting in leaks.
REMOVAL - RIGHT CYLINDER HEAD
1. Disconnect battery negitive cable.
2. Raise the vehicle on a hoist.
3. Disconnect the exhaust pipe at the right side
exhaust manifold.
4. Drain the engine coolant (Refer to 7 - COOLING -
STANDARD PROCEDURE).

6. Remove the intake manifold (Refer to 9 - ENGINE/
MANIFOLDS/INTAKE MANIFOLD - REMOVAL).
7. Remove the cylinder head cover (1) (Refer to 9 -
ENGINE/CYLINDER HEAD/CYLINDER HEAD
COVER(S) - REMOVAL).
8. Remove the fan shroud (Refer to 7 - COOLING/
ENGINE/FAN DRIVE VISCOUS CLUTCH -
REMOVAL).
9. Remove oil fill housing from cylinder head.
10. Remove accessory drive belt (Refer to 7 - COOL-
ING/ACCESSORY DRIVE/DRIVE BELTS -
REMOVAL).
