Post subject:  Rod removal without removing crank/head

I have not stripped a g16 down enough to know , is it possible to remove a rod out the bottom leaving the crank and piston in place . I know it would not be good practice etc just contemplating a dodgy repair for a very limited time , one day , in a non road legal 4x4 .

While on the stupid questions , are g16 8v and 16v rods the same . Just in boew and length etc not fused about strength/thickness etc .

Cheers
Chris

you'll never get the piston past the crank, and if you do you'll never get it back is with the rings in tact
just remove the head, its a ten minute job

Ahaha well there's no way you'll get the rod out without the piston coming along for the ride - you can't get the gudeon pin out if it's still in the cylinder
