...changing your headgasket requires disassembling your cylinder head. The head bolts are under the Camshafts. The UDP doesn't have to be removed but if you want to change it. I HIGHLY recommend the Craftsman 3 arm 5ton pulley. They are very strong and with it the pulley will come off without too much drama. It will take a couple days AT LEAST when doing the gasket yourself for the first time even up to a week. While you're at it you will have to change all your gaskets, so get the upper engine gasket kit or complete head gasket kit from Mitsubishi. The spark plug oil seals are b!tch to have to redo. So make sure when reinstalling the head to make sure these are seated properly. Anyway you can do it but make sure you have your 1st Mod: The Factory Repair Manual!
