Subject:      Head stuck to cylinder: need advice
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

 My 91 Carat blew its head gaskets once again.air bubbles in the coolant and
coolant in oil.
I tried to repair in the vehicle, and found both cylinders coming off with
the head.
I really dont want to pull the engine.  Does anyone have any advice or
ideas???
I fixed it 2 years ago this way and was able to get away with.
Im not sure if its galvanic corrosion or the head is melted.

Thanks...
