Head gasket
« on: May 18, 2018, 02:27:11 PM »
Hi
Just removed my head on the bis and the head gasket just crumbled into pieces, surely it should be in better condition as it was replaced only two years ago.
Is there a better gasket on the market because I don't want to fit another cheap caring one again
Thank you
Pete

Can't see any on eBay at the moment, but there's a couple of suppliers who've got em.
