Technical Head Gasket Replacement

[excession]

Hi team

So there is oil in my water and water in my oil. I need to replace the head gasket. I understand the theory of this and have helped a mate do one in the past on a different car. It's an 06 1.2 8v.

In the absence of the Haynes manual for the Punto, I have two questions.

1. Do I need to replace the head bolts?
2. Which gaskets will need renewing other than the head gasket?
3. Will I need to get the engine mount off to slacken the cam belt?

Cheers!

James

1.) Yes if you want the repair to last.

2.) You get all the gaskets as part of the set. Replace the ones you disturb

3.) No, only if your swapping the belt.
