Heya everyone;
I am looking for a video or two or three
that shows how to replace the heads on a 4V, in this case a 2001 Cobra that has a seeping head gasket.
At least I am fairly sure its a seeping head gasket, it only happens when the motor is cold and a small bit of water gets into the oil and builds up on the oil filler cap. Once the motor is warmed up for about 30 minutes it of course vaporizes and the leak closes as the block and heads expand.
I know how to replace the heads of course from several past builds but what I never got around to learning was setting up the timing on these engines and degreeing the cams, I always let someone else do that.
Really I need a video that focuses more on the timing.
If there are a couple good books out there too let me know which is best.
I just want to make sure that I do not screw this up, I cant afford to kill an engine. lol
Thanks everyone.
