bolts snapped in exhaust side on head
« on: 06 May 2015, 15:55:05 »
Afternoon . I decided to replace the head gasket on the omega thus morning well at least start it .
 Anyway I flushed the engine out first then started to strip it down and yes it was raining and I was outside . Mental I agree but I needed to get on with it .
 As the afternoon went on and no interuptions from the missis the head was soon in my arms after 3 hours . (Not bad time I think )
 Anyway like normal the first two bolts in the exhaust side snapped so looks like I might have to take it in to be fixed if I can't get them out myself .  So all in all at the moment job well done
