Hey guys
I have a 1988 TD42 non turbo GQ patrol. I have been noticing some leaks from the head I'm not too sure if it is from the head gasket or from the rocker cover. Either way because I have heard some knocking from the engine for a while so I have decided to replace the whole head to solve this problem once and for all. I have a brand new head coming to me with a new VRS kit which includes new gaskets and bolts. Some advice and the correct procedure in tackling this situation from someone who has done this before and has some experience in this kind of thing will be appreciated. And the right torque settings and equipment used during the head replacement and the right way to set the timing and any other things that need to be set and done right. Can someone give me some good advice please thank you in advance fellow GQ/TD42 owners
