REMOVING HEAD ON AQ130C

[normanr25]

Hi Guys
Can any member explain what I have to remove to take the head off my AQ130C engine,I can't believe I cannot get the information on the internet.

I have removed the manifold and carb but the cooling section is causing me problems as I don't know what has to come off to remove the head,I have done loads of cars but never a marine engine before.

why not read the manual.

I read the manual and it is as much use as a chocolate fireguard tells you nothing of any help at all, so anybody hoping to remove the head using the manual forget it you will have to do the same as me and struggle because the copper piping and exhaust is lousy job do to being seized up with time and you need to be told the best way to do it, and that is all I was asking to see if any other member had tackled the job and could have passed on some tips.
