Well, the good news is that the head is finally off.

The bad news is, the cylinder sleeves seem to be pretty far out of their
home position... I'd say about two inches.   I tried using moderate force to
slide them back in, but they don't want to go.  Should I use the "AMF"
method (apply more force)?  Or am I in deep doo doo at this point?

Can someone please take a peak at the photo on the bottom of the following
page linked below and let me know their opinion?

Thanks in advance (TIA)
