Yes man, totally agree, it is what it is, a HEAD GASKET,
Oviously, the first time the coating would have been cleaned off, head and block, sealant used and refitted.
Both head and block are really clean now, will let new gasket do its job
Old school mechanic i show both to was wondering how i got em so clean,
It was sealant, and gasket, gasket had no coating,
Its the first time diving into any engine, and first time i had to pay attention to a headgasket,
Not ready yet! Still a bit more work to do before ordering. Ta!
