head gasket

Post by MonkeeBoy »

this is stupid but what does the head gasket look like on a corsa? :P lol
thinking of changing it when i get the manifold, friend told me it\'d be worth changing it as its probably never been changed before lol
cheers for any help :)

thats one for the 1.5 diesel, but they all look pretty much the same for every car just the gasket *or seal* that goes round the top of the head *cylnder head*
hence the name headgasket :)

exhaust gaskets you can buy on there own the last one i changed was about £2.60 or somthing stupid like that. all ways use a new gasket as the old ones all ways blow if re-used and dont bother with paste either unless the mainfold is warped

example of an exhaust gasket...........................
