Hi all,
unfortunately due to my lack of experience/negligence although I did check (maybe not thorough enough) on the tungy 5 I recently bought, I believe the head gasket has gone.
On the day I bought it I did check for 'mayo' on underside of cap and it honestly didnt really smoke on the whole journey home. But checking it over today I had some pretty obvious signs of it going ; mayo under cap & white smoke from exhaust. Everything else seems to be fine, runs up to temperature nicely and fan cuts in no problems at all.
I'm more annoyed at myself for not recognising the signs than bothered about having it sorted because as I say i'm keeping it for good now, so when its done its done! I'm not driving it at the moment so at least I can get the money together and get it done properly.
Which brings me onto this - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/390124007354?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2648&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT - looking through i've found this head gasket set with bolts and just wondered if anybody else has tried it out, or tested another they would reccomend at all?
Thanks for the help, (please dont rip me too much lol)
