Time to change head gasket 900

I don't undo the three nuts which hold the head pipe to the turbo wastegate housing. I undo the hard to reach nut from under the exhaust manifold, and put a floor jack under the head pipe, and lift it just a little. If you lift too much, you'll have to deal with the o-ring at the bottom of the turbo oil drain tube. With the intake manifold removed (of course), the head can be tilted up on the left side and slid up and over the sleeves which position the head gasket.

I don't undo the turbo oil supply line.
