Default Damn damn head gasket

Well after 800k on the new head gasket it has given out on me. Just my luck I guess.

I took the rad cap off and there were lots of little air bubbles, and a noticable oil sheen. I hauled my plugs and they are all nice and tan except for # 2, which is more white than anything.

This sucks anyway you look at it. I guess its because I ran couple of hundred km before I put my inline on with my fmu, maybe that was the root of my problem.

As of right now I'm not over heating, only a little on my cyl head temp gauge, and not on my dash temp gauge.

So I guess I'll take the whole god damn works apart again, mill my head (I'm safe cause with my arias pistons I'm 8.5:1) to make sure its not warped (like my mind at this point), see if the local honda will give me another HG to replace the.................let say its defective.................HG. Worse case scenario I have a spare Z6 head.

I don't see no reason why the stock honda HG won't do the job on only 8psi once I replace it once again.

I like to call this the "eternal struggle".
