Head Gasket?

if your head gasket has gone the cylinder head will need to be skimmed,because its made of aluminium and warps when the gasket goes,not a job you can do,unless you own an engineering company,the norm cost of this is £100.00.if you take the block off send it to be skimmed,then its just a case of getting new gasket,and fitting it ,hope this helps ,but you will need a torgue wrench to tighten the head bolts to the required tension,(cheaper to put into garage)

Your best bet will be to buy a copy of the Haynes manual around £20 (Halfords, Amazon etc) or your local library might be able to get you a copy, it will take you step by step through the proccess, with pictures and tools required, as it's far to involved to detail on here
