Hi, my dear old uno 45 is pretty neglected but going fairly well considering.
Something discussed on another thread got me thinking.
She had a sudden, one-off loss of maybe 1/3rd of a cup of water from the rad cap which made me panic about the head gasket. I topped it up but prepared for the funeral but it hasn't happened again since -about 80 miles ago. I have never found that replacing the head gasket works all that well on other makes but we've never had to do it on our fiats. How successful have people been on the forum with replaced head gaskets and does anyone think that the head gasket has gone?
I sometimes wonder if I've got a wiff of antifreeze and I suppose it could explain the slight underperformance.
Any thoughts please?
