I have to change the push rod seals now as it is dripping oil on to the hot exhaust pipes going into the heat exchangers, cue smoke and smell!!
Is there anything to watch out for because ive never done this before. I have ordered seals and head gaskets from timsvw, do i need anything else? Also do i need a torque wrench for the head bolts?
Many thanks
AGAIN!

sure you need to take the heads off?
iirc( and i maybe wrong here) you can do them without taking the heads off........

Bev showed me that thread after I had posted this one, so I've printed it off.
