Hi all,
Anyone changed a head gasket on an air cooled diesel?
This one has been blowing gas out of the gasket for a while and just wondered what people have been doing to prepare the top of the cylinder.
It seems to have a lot of carbon build up round the top of the bore and on the surface the gasket sits on.
Whats an acceptable way to get rid of this build up?
Fine emery cloth or solvent and a plastic scraper?
Any other ideas?
Thanks, all
