Hoping to get some beer money, I need to get the pre-chambers out of the
cracked head from my wagon so I can take it to the aluminum recycler. How to
get them out? BFH? I removed the locking rings with hammer and chisel, and beat
on one for a bit. Pounded it flush, but now it doesn't want to go
Wrong way to do that.
You need to find the two tools for this job -- or the combination
tool. It screws into the hole where the injector goes and has a
wrench that fits in the slots to unscrew the locking ring and a slide
hammer to pull the pre-chamber out.
DO NOT use a hammer on the
The slide hammer deal that Peter mentioned can be fashioned from a bicycle crank

So the injector threads into the pre-chamber, right?
I will take it by the machine shop when I pick up the new head, see if they
will pull them for free. If not, then I may have to make a puller.
What about getting the valves out, how does that keeper come off?

The earlier heads on the 3.0 liter engines tended to crack when overheated.
I think they got it figured out by the #21 heads (though I might be wrong on
which number is which). Kaleb is correct, the 3.5 liter engines bent rods.

I have an used adapter for injectors from Sir Tools. It is my spare and
worn, yours if you want it.
If you have not mushroomed the tips of the pre-chambers too badly, or if
you can cut them off flush, this tool may be of use to you or your
machine shop.
Pre-chambers must be extracted

IIRC, you torque to given value - not all the great, then turn the bolt 90
degrees, let it sit for 15 minutes, then turn it another 90 degrees. These
are strech bolts. You need to measure the shank of the old ones before
re-using them to see if they're in tolerance or not. I just bought new bolts
