TU engines = pile of crap
#17
For future reference - don't bother with a repair gasket, it'll be fine with a normal one for just a light skim. No sealant. You can re-use the bolts if they're within the length specs, but it's a good idea to just stick some new ones in if the budget stretches.

Anyway, you have bled all the air out of all 3 valves right? Fitted the correct inlet manifold gaskets if it's one of the early engines that has water flowing through it?
Custom roll cages/shiny suspension bits/general fabrication work undertaken, PM me.
Top engine mount repair/reinforcement/chocking for cracked chassis and high powered cars, drive in, drive out, 2 hour turnaround.
