Hey guys haven't found anything real solid. Downloaded service manual EM which was extremely helpful. It refers to another section CO but I don't have that. Do you know where to find that? :crazy:

Let me know, I'll post some pictures of the work i've been doing.

I've got the Air box off, intake manifold, rocker panel, thermostat housing, and now working on timing cover.

any links on the forum?

Update on the headgasket job, broke the pulley bolt finally. Posted the video on youtube. not sure anyone has any helpful tips to make this a perfect job.

Some items i'm planning on replacing.

Thermostat Gasket
Temperature Sensor on Thermostat housing
valve cover
Crank Pulley Seal

Does anyone know how they put that timing gasket seal on properly, seems difficult. I started removing the bolts from the timing case and it was hard just to get your hands in to get it off.. JEEZE!

Any suggestions helpful.

Ok so I finally got off the timing chain cover. Now I'm stuck trying to take off the cam shaft pulleys. I think I might have broke my hand. I need to buy more tools to see if I can get this bolt off.

Honestly no one responds in these versa forums. I'm starting to think all versa owners aren't active on this nico forums.
