I just took the head off a 1995 dodge colt motor, if your motor says 4G15 on a plate on the front of the block on the right side (standing in front of car, facing motor) you will need a 10mm socket to get the valve cover off, then a 5/16 allan key (hex head) or appropriate 5/16 end on a socket for the 10 bolts holding the head on. The socket would be easier than the allan key as the OHC is in the way (easily removed but make note of how everything comes apart if you do, can be a little tricky to get back on, patience). If you need any more help just reply.
