A snowy, but sunny morning in Altrincham today for more work on Karl’s lovely Trophy…
Head gasket replacement carried out, along with replacing the underfloor coolant pipes with stainless steel ones as they had previously been replaced with some very poor quality ones as part of this car’s ‘restoration’ some years ago.
The gasket that was used was a copy if the new N series gasket, that unfortunately for Karl, had failed on cylinders 2, 3 and 4. However, we did notice that the gasket had also been fitted with silicone sealant, which can’t have helped.
Car now running lovely and smooth. Good to see Karl again (at distance).
