Hey guys. So I need do do the head gasket. It's been a while since I did one on any car and would like a refresher for this car as it's what I've got Is there a tutorial either just text and pics or video of a 07 Grande Punto 1.2 8V at all? I know parts needed and torque settings for head bolts. Just a refresher

A Haynes manual would be a good shout, there is a guide for timing belt on here.


Cheers

Ben

Yeah was thinking on getting one. Was hoping for a vid as I find it easier to take away information from seeing it being done.

Have a look here ...

Thanks. Found another issue though. Previous owner had left it without any anti-freeze just water during the beast from the east and this happened,

You could find all kinds of issues

Anticipate a failed radiator too..

Hg failing in this way is BAD you may need all faces skimmed..but look VERY carefully
For signs of cracking before wasting money on a wrecked engine.

Hope its not as bad as it looks
