Yoshi:
! week after i get the rangie back from having the gearbox done, the head gasket goes!

AbyssDJ:
congratulations... its a little baby land rover! :lol:  :roll:

Yoshi:
I know, am going to attempt a head gasket repair myself :-o lol, although need to check first, got white smoke out the exit and the rad is [!Expletive Deleted!] lol

Range Rover Blues:
The only thing you need to watch is that the heads might need skimming.  None of the gaskets costs the earth, not that that;s any consolation to a guy with a massive hole in his pocket already but a head set should be under £40.

Add in some new anti-freeze and a bit of threadlock for the head bolts.

Skimming can cost from a few beers to  :shock: loads :shock: , ask around.

But a relatively easy DIY.

Yoshi:
I dont know if there is any visual way to see if the heads need skimming or not, but i think i might be ok, as the engine cut out before the guage went up to the red, and there was no massive smoking from the engine when it went, so i am praying the heads arent warped!
