86 Supra head removal

amueller626 · 03-06-2010, 07:15 PM

I removed all 14 head bolts and the head is loose to a point where I can rock it but cannot lift it off. Am I missing something, I don't know whats holding it down. There are 3 14 mm allen bolts, 1 between each pair of spark plugs. The shop manual does not say to remove these and they are very tight. I don't want to break them and it seems like they are not holding the head down because as tight as they are I don't think the head would move. Can anyone help?
Thanks,

Bill
