Head Gasket Fix and Problems
Alright I am working on a Head Gasket fix for a D15B8 tomorrow. Just curious if anyone has any specific tips or pointers. Stock 93 CX Hatch.
Anyone who's been through it, and tips to help speed things up?

Re: Head Gasket Fix and Problems (killer6993)
What head gasket did you buy? There is actually a Service Bulletin pertaining to the 88-00 non vtec head gaskets for leaking. They're the ghetto composite type, not the 3 layer steel found in the VTEC models.
Make sure you get both mating surfaces CLEAN. Check the head and the deck for warpage. Use new bolts if you can afford it, and follow directions in the service manual and you won't have any problems.
