Search the site until you find the links to repairs. Headgasket repair is shown in an almost step by step fasion. The problem is that you will need a reverse Torx socket for your ratchet. That is NOT a common item in a standard toolkit. I got mine in Canada from a place called Princess Auto. Mine are rated for impact hammers. I am sure Snap-On makes them. I am not sure if Sears makes them. You will also need a torquewrench. You also need to remove the bolts securing the head to the shortblock in a special fasion to avoid warping or breaking the head. You need to remove outer bolts before inner, and move from front to back. I diagram would be best, but I don't have one.
You are tight on about the Bentley Manual! I strongly suggest you buy it.
Good luck.
