    Good call to remove the head Bro. I would have been stubborn and went all the around that option. Actually I prolly would have replaced the entire cooling system 1 piece at a time before I considered removing the top end.

    its easier if u take the studs out b4 pulling the head and easier putting the head back on if the studs are out. If uve never put a head on with stds in the block ull see what i mean when u put it back together. have fun with that shit. Oh, and i know ur back was killing you when u finally got the head out since the studs were still in there. LOL!!

    Well, looks like I was the only one with the correct diagnosis of a seep on the HG. It only heats up one cylinder is why sometimes it heats up sometimes it doesn't.

    my 240 is running hot no fully hot but like 75% to 80%. it does it randomly. I am only running water no coolant did not want to drive to store at time. I changed the thermostat yesterday. You think it could just be cause of not running coolant water mix?

    whenever i had pure water in mystock b16a, while i was filling and draining it, the water was boiling in the overflow and shit but the car wasnt overheating. so yeah i guess driving pure water would mess with the engine, pour a bottle of redline in there.

    bee

    its not quite fixed yet, im waiting on my new orings, ill prolly have it put back together thursday afternoon since im not in an atomic hurry to get it done. Im hoping that some fresh orings will aid the seal against what looks like a slight sleeve sink on the #4 end since i now realize that when i put my head on the block during the build, the ORINGS were used(already crushed), and i didnt know any difference cause i had never seen fresh o rings.. There shit that may have been throwing off the sleeve checking the the strait edge had on limited borrow like old shit on the tops of the sleeves from the old headgasket and shit. I should be going to steele either friday night or sunday, prolly sunday to see how its gonna do me. me wheels are still getting polished but i can rush that fucker up this week.
