So I'm spending my weekend replacing the chain guide in my 1994. Who would have thought with only 74k it could be so screwed up!

Anyways, I'm trying to figure out how to remove that 19mm Bolt on the cam that is over the infamous 'hidden bolt' that secures the head to the timing cover. Every where I read says 'just use a wrench and hammer', frustratingly enough however that isn't work for me, isn't budging.

Any suggestions?

 

Problem solved! I wasn't using a big enough hammer .

Here is another related question.... Do I have to totally disconnect the AC compressor or can I push it out of the way to get the timing cover off?

 

Remove the compressor from the bracket and it will move out of the way
