ok no sand paper looking for gasket remover is there anything i can coat the cylinder walls with to protect them??? this is the first time ive attempted this major a job on my car so thanks everyone for putting up with my noobish questions and lack of knowledge

ok so im soaking the surface of the block with degreaser and scrubbing the piston heads clean would it be a good idea to take a bit of sand paper to the block surface to get the gasket remains off it?

so brake parts cleaner and spray degreaser is a nono??

yea the block is staying in i cant pull it right now but you say i can just clean it with degreaser so i should i just bring each piston up to the top and clean it then set everything back to tdc ?

ok so i hope tht works im not too sure how to get the images to work also the block looks kinda nasty can i clean it with the parts cleaner too?

thanks i finally got the head off its really suprising the head gasket doesnt look blown im kinda perplexed oh and before i forget all of the pistons and valves are all encrusted with some chared substance how do i get this stuff off safely ??? heres what the block looks like and most of the...

ok so i got a torx that is equivelent to an 11mm hex im banging that in to the bolt head its taking forever tho i just orderd a set of arp bolts so once this last bolt comes out i wont have this problem again

hey i finally went ahead and got things ready for my hg replacement i loosend all the head bolts in order but when i got to number 10 it simply rounded itself out so all the other bolts came out but that one my question is how can i get that damn bolt out it is also torqued down to 72ft/lbs...

what an absolute life saver i just did this mod and got my brake lights back i actually fried the board itself when i removed my third brake light (wingless) +1 for a good fix

well im not super concerned with how it looks im just trying to figure out if it will work i heard the corolla celica and the supra can mount up the same sterring wheels thats why im tryin to see if this will fit

hey everyone i was looking for a little clarity on this issue first up will a celica or corolla steering hub fit on the mk3 and if I'm doing more than daily driving like occasional weekend drifting would this hub be a good or bad idea thanks...

Lmao tooooo funny

or stop parking that way on hills lmao

lol the other thing is that it only happens when the car is parked up on an angle where the drivers side is higher than the passenger i dunno if that would make a difference.

im starting to wonder tho i might just have to retorque the headbolts the only symptom of a bhg that i have is the coolant reservoir boiling over but there is no coolant in the oil and the car is not overheating at all im just wondering at this point

i was lookin there and online but the prices seem to vary ive found some for like 57 and ones all the way up to like 300 so im not sure whats actually going to be reliable

hey i just had my first signs of a bhg today and im just wondering where everyone orders their stock head gasket kits from other than toyota thanks
