B18 overheating 444-544 1959

Hi John,

I have followed most of the suggestions I got from the list including replacing my sending unit / guage and putting in a new bosch coil. The old coil was 6vt and needed to be changed out anyway. So with that said I have all the parts/gaskets/freeze plugs here ready for me to pull the head and check the distribution pipe.

I have my Volvo parts catalog and an old Hanes manual covering the B18. Any suggestions or things I need to look out for when removing the head?

Is that Distribution pipe bolted in, or indexed inside the head in any way?
Does the distribution pipe slide out the front, or the back of the head easier?

Thanks, any help would be appreciated. The manual just doesn't cover this.

Cheers
Rob
