Doc came over yesturday arvo after a cry for help Morris would not start. I checked all the normals and doc did the thumb presure test..three and four ver little pressure, head gasket gone.. :cry:
Just taken the head off and you can guess it.. both 3 and 4 piston are wet and a nice piece of gasket is missing.
Look like Sue's without Morris for a little bit again :? she's not happy

This time, we'll use a different gasket- NOT a copper one. They don't make them like they used to. :cry:

Get a metal ruler out and check if it's flat.
