Will ask how the pistons look when the head is off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Update time Got the g6 back from cms after a long two weeks away The head gasket had actually failed not the head lifting Full Service on the head, checked everything out. And everything is back together and working, which is nice The fuel pumps were working perfectly however a seal on it failed and the filters on the pump got clogged, Unfortunately I spilt diff fluid in the boot and the smell is still hanging around, absolutely putrid. I will be planning on taking it off the road for a few months while I do the gearbox swap, build and engine (still havent decided on pistons) and rebush everything But imma just throw some e85 in and enjoy it for a while 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spewing Yeah I travel up to ourimbah but its a joke atm, its around $1.25, Eflex at west gosford is <$1.00 (was 90c per litre last time I checked) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LU82 Bronze Donating Members 569 Member For: 11y 10m 7d Posted 08/05/16 12:00 PM Share Posted 08/05/16 12:00 PM It had an out of order sign on the pump for a while then it disappeared. Did you upgrade the head studs while you had the head off ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
