many thanks browney i have seen your external mod in your project thread a while ago a nice neat mod,
though im going to attempt it in car and see how i get on,
im going for the internal mod, im fairly confident with having a go,if it doesnt cure it i will remove the head,
dont get me wrong it could be the gasket gone but either way it wants modding so with it on the car i will try it first i have got a fair bit of info off the net heres the link if anybody is interested inclusing cut down head pics

thanks to djbrowney for the offer of repair also

But thats proper pikey and havent ever had a head go porus

supposedly yes though check the torque setting of the bolt before removal,then refit and torque 2nm extra than what was apparently,

this is how people do it in situe i think its pikey but if it works worse case i have to remove the head

The only problem being if any oil runs into the bolt hole when you take the bolt out itll hydraulic when you retorque it as i though about this as i need to do this mod too.
