Tom Fenton 1,542 Posted June 23, 2008 What is the history of the gasket that has failed? How has failure occured? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cyman 1 1 Cars Posted June 23, 2008 well, iv'e not taken the head off yet. but it's pressurising the coolent out and no combustion in no3 cylinder. the engine had been sitting around for around 6 years. it could be corrosion !? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom Fenton 1,542 Posted June 23, 2008 Its either old age has finally claimed it, or perhaps corrosion. You need to pull the head and see. I've had a few Mi16 gaskets that have given up simply through old age. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
