Push the base of the seat towards the REAR of the car on each side (one at a time) as you push back also lift UP. That will pull the prongs out of their holes.

To remove the backrest you will see a prong on each side (after the base has been removed) that has a bolt holding it in......simply remove the bolt and LIFT the backrest towards the roof....it will slide over 2 hooks and release.......to put them back in just reverse the process

Thanks riverside, but unfortunately I haven't been able to get the bugger out :) I've finaly had time to play with it in the day light, and no luck. Is there some trick in pushing back, eg; how far should I push it back, then lift up?

If you are talking about the seat base ie the arse part, it just requires a sharp lift (per side) to pop the 2 clips that are located on the front edge - no unbolting. If your clips are pretty good like mine were when I last took the seat out you might smack your head (like I did) when they finally give.

If you're talking about the back section hooked to the rear firewall, first unbolt it on the bottom edge (uncovered by removing the seat base mentioned above) then slide it up the firewall to unhook it. Note: If your steel ski-port cover has been removed then the top part of the seat is only held up by 2 hooks rather that 4 or 5

Hope you have better luck with it!

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
