gasket

[michaellfc95]

iv just got my gaskets fromm mmr its a head gasket dose any one have any tips on fitting it ?

 

[pablo]

just make sure the surface on the head and motor are clean, remember to tighten the head bolts a bit at a time and don,t over tighten them or they could snap.

aye as pablo said dude, rule #1 is tighten them a little at a time ie:

don't start on one bolt then tighten it all the way, just tighten it a little, then go onto the next bolt do the same so your just tightengin them a little at a time evenly, keep doing that until theyre all tight, reason for this is if you tighten 1 bolt all the way & none of the others, then you can end up warping the head & have a very poor seal.

Hope this helps dude

Make sure to torque them down.
The air you feel is from the flywheel.
