[Element X]

Right im new here obviously. so HI
and im in the middle of a head gasket change of a 1.6 16v corsa b sport engine code x16xe and i am just looking for tips on what people have had experiences in.
ive got the head bolts lossend ready to come of i have the exhaust manifold off i have the cam belt off.
i have the blue plug unplugged and other wires pipes removed
now i have one head bolt tht is rounded off and i do need some tips on how to get tht out ?
also is there anything i missed all and any help would be apreciated

that sounds like everything to be honest mate, that bolt sounds like the hardest bit, havent you got yourself some female torx bits?

ah right, if you need some spare head bolts im sure i have some spare ones here from a 1.4 16v i split so i could send you one or two if you pay for postage, stick some photos of your car up in the your projects section we'l love to see it and follow along with your problems

will they fit ?

and can i reuse the ones ive got ?

[PRICER]

yea you can re-use the ones you already have, but means as you say one or two are rounded then obviously you cant but the 1.4 and 1.6 16v engines are exactly the same so i can only guess that so are the head bolts,
