Okay I've searched around but one thing I haven't found the answer to, what manufacturer/make of head gasket is the most recommended for a
2000 Punto 8V ??
I've done my daughters car twice now both times using a BGA gasket kit.
The last time not so long ago I had the head skimmed, I lapped the valves new stem seals etc as you would, new water pump with much larger metal impeller, new thermostat, flushed system, correctly bleed.
Still hasn't lasted I'm sure its on its way again, block is true so I'm thinking that the gasket quality could be the issue, so can anyone recommend a good quality gasket.
The gasket is a piece of cake to replace but replacing it every few months is a pain in the ass.
Sorry I know this has been discussed to death but the one answer I was looking for I was unable to find.
Cheers.
