Hi
renewed head gasket on my 1.1. Skimmed head and fitted new thicker gasket. Now engine wont start. Checked compression and down to 70:60:50:50psi (4.8:4.1:3.4:3.4 bar), was 7 bar in worst cylinder before started.
The reason I did head was because pressure was building up in water and one on the cylinders was low, after someone one ran it without water.
