Success got it off!! Thanx boys!! Really thought u fellas vocky evocarlos KevinH were playing a practical joke on the convict saying it would come thru the top! Sure enuff it did. There was no method to the madness it just came out with lots and lolts and lots of jiggling. Did take the injectors and rail out and sooo much easier to do when the light is good . Putting the manifold back in was easier but still painfulll........
Think i have to agree with u Carl, and all the debate about the z22se pcv system - it must breathe quite well cause the tiny pcv hole in the head after all these years and KM was not fully blocked off. Yeah it was partially obstructed but to still be flowing even now means it was designed pretty well from the outset. Cleaned what muck was in the hole and the manifold and put it back together - i really really wanted to port the manifold whilst it was out........but i couldnt be bothered i realised i like driving the car more than i like working on it lol. Hope this fixes the oil consumption problem (400-600ml per 1000km)
