I have the 3.0 liter Mitsubishi engine. I know that I have poor compression on the rear cylinder of the left bank (front bank in vehicle).

My question is: Can that head be removed from the vehicle for valve work, without pulling the whole engine out of the van?

You should be able to access it with removing the engine.

Terry, I just reread my post to you. I ment to say, "you should be able to remove it WITHOUT removing the engine". Sorry about that.
