    A little vague with "Take the engine apart"

    Any part or area of the engine in particular?

    12" steel ruler
    Sharp pencil, HB or equivalent
    Tenon saw
    Protractor
    Claw hammer
    Rigger gloves
    Soldering iron
    Phillips screwdriver.

    That's all I can think of for now.

    Depends on whether it's a facelift model or not.
