New head gasket


paddle

Recommended Posts

Hi I'm going to remove the head from my blandit 12 to re machine the exhaust studs.i have been told that you can re use the head gasket with giving it a coat of primer is that right.if a new head gasket is needed do I go genuine or are there decent pattern ones available 

Thanks

just think of all the work involved in taking a head off and putting it back on.  you fire it up and a few miles down the road theirs a leak !!!!!  is it worth the risk ?  and be  careful about the front oil drain tubes, they tend to leak sometimes form the top O ring. they are worth replacing as well BUT use OEM seals as they are an odd size.
