    The document outlines the procedure for removing and installing the cylinder head of a 2.3L EcoBoost engine in a Ford Focus. It details draining fluids, removing ancillary components, loosening bolts and studs, and lifting out the cylinder head. Proper torque specifications and cautions are provided throughout.

    The main steps are to remove the cylinder head bolts and studs, lift the cylinder head off the locating dowels, and slide it out from the turbocharger area. Old bolts and studs must be discarded and new ones installed.

    Components that need to be removed first include the intake manifold, camshafts, fuel rail, sensors, and water outlet. Marking the locations of any reusable parts like the valve tappets is also noted.
