tell me about it its hard enough getting it to run on the 708's witha 285 lift no ive just been to look at the car and this engine (its on its 3rd) has the oe revised gasket but its steel...! now that must of take a lot to blow?

so what would you recomend i skim off

hi ben! im gettig the head off in the morning.. im not convinced its the valves. the coolent.. holds its temp, and it hasent moved down, the oil is clean and gold.. the OE gasket is paper and is the cause of most of the failers.. the other alt is a 3ply steel. will a visual inspection of...

well dont drive it in the mean time... coz when the belt comes off the cam belt comes off too 99% of the time

cheers lad

thats what im thinking.. just gettin hold of one in the morning.. lol theres a lad next door has a 02 plate vts.. hes gone away for 2 weeks! do u reckon u could remove the engine from under the car then fit a new one without the bonnet open? think ill need brucy baby for this one

not like 40 in second and 70 in 3rd

if it was the valves and rings i dont think they would of worn on the same rate ie 50 each... if they running the same values and the leak is on the gasket then it would even up.. hence the 50 in 2nd 50 in 3rd

if its bad then a new engine is only 300 so ill have to do that

how old r u? dans gettin on a bit too... hows ur hips and headboard?

erm not sure then.. edde is ur man for this one

come on.. ! ahh well any pics for him

the sunroofs leak.. so its may be getting wet all the time

yer i did a search on pug-gti and got 41 returns for 16v headgasket lol

think its a mrk1 as thats where the sensor is

not sure but dan (revels 106) said will u bang him

yer 50 psi.. all the plugs were out.. so if the 2nd was having the test then the presure would leak out of the 3rd with the split inbetween. there is some compression so the valves are lifting etc.. wont the pressure test show the crack

220 50 50 220 that the compression i have now.. have a major misfire!. i think the gasket has gone between the 2-3 cylinder.. there is no over heat in cycle.. or oil water mix.. so im guesing the oil and water jackets have not been mixed through the fail. stripping the block in the morning...

if u had a head infront of you .. just by looking at it would you know if it was cracked? or would only a pressure test show this?

lol its a 106 gti
