Head Gasket Set

[bluesaxo21]

Does anyone know any good websites or places around Cardiff where i can get a full head gasket set including stretch bolts and rocker cover gaskets for a 2002 vts? i have quite alot white smoke coming out of the exhaust most of the time so im guessing it needs to be changed -.-

I wouldnt change it till it fails, but saying that isit loosing coolent? You check to see if oil is going like yellow-ish?

[bluesaxo21]

ye i just dont wana be in london or something wen it does go haha
the oil isnt yellow just the level is dropping all the time i know the rocker cover is leaking oil but it cant be leaking that much and the coolant also seems to be going down
do you think i should just change the oil and coolant?

[Cam]

Hmmmm well if its leaking i'd get it sealed up, but if your loosing coolent could be HG. Just deffo make sure because a HG change on a 16v is a whole lot more then a 8V.

ye i will defo have to do the rocker gaskets asap! i know man cant find any full sets for the 16v but millions for the 8v so annoying!

How much you want to spend on a HG itself?

[saxostuart]

you can only seem to buy them seperate, theres a headset on ebay including valve stems etc for 46 cant seem to find a full head set for a 16v myself, just have to buy it seperate i suppose

how is a head gasket change on a 16v so much harder than an 8v?

[Cam]

u cant buy rocker seals for a vts

Who said you could?

[adamskiTNR]

oh well. proper sealant is the same as factory

[bluesaxo21]

where can u buy the rocker seals from? and ye no-one does the full kit it seems which is annoying! so i need to buy HG itself, stretch bolts, rocker seals and the timing belt kit?
didnt wana spend more than 140 ish for it all tbh haha
