⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Coolant loss with no external leak, or bubbling in the header tank
• White steam from the exhaust, or coolant in the oil
• Overheating that worsens quickly under load
• Loss of compression on one or two cylinders, with hard starting
• Gasket blown through between cylinders, or corroded on strip-down

🛠️ Service Notes

• Have the head and block faces checked for flatness and the specified finish before fitting
• Use new head bolts where they are single-use, and tighten in the specified sequence and stages
• Confirm the 1.3 mm thickness is what your engine calls for, as thickness affects compression
