There are products that will clean the carbon from the engine. Have you checked on that?

They didn't help? If you are replacing the head or cleaning it, removal is a last resort. However, make sure to replace all gaskets, timing chain, and I would recommend having the head checked to make sure it is true and flat.

Can you explain what the vehicle is doing? I would hate to see you remove the head if it isn't needed.
