Hi.
I must rethread a head front stud.
I have removed a lot of time the Commando head (from frame place) and to replace sometimes was a nightmare.
This will be first time wirh Atlas.
Is it more easy than Commando, there is much more space?.
Thanks.

If you have an early engine with spigoted barrel, the head may be stuck with carbon build up. If so, install the exhaust nuts, insert a piece of wood, and tap with a hammer or mallet until it breaks free.
