Re: Head gasket??

Re: Head gasket??

Cheers Dave. Someone else recommended K seal. I was a little skeptical as never used anything like it and wondered if it leads to problems if it comes time to do the head gasket, leaving residues etc. Pulled the manifold tonight and there is a frost plug right above that head bolt that seems wet.

Head gasket??

Little back story.... I had the car out one day and had a leak from an exhaust manifold bolt. Pulled the manifold put studs in instead. Sealed threads new gaskets and rocker cover gaskets to stop a little weep there and ran her again. I noticed a leak and thought, damn I didn’t seal a stud... when I...

Im always surprised how many cars are hiding in garages about the place. I spread the word over here when I meet people but as stated some people don't do clubs and like here I am sure there are other clubs in the U.K. and regional clubs all competing for members.

I'd agree with blue, looks like most of these come from China these days. Likely from a small number of manufacturers.
