Well, it looks like it has finally happened.



After several weeks of frustrating airlocks in the radiator and heater coupled with coolant levels rising in the expansion tank, I can now smell combustion gas in the coolant. I have not been losing any coolant but the car overheats on anything more than a 10 mile journey.



So time to bite the bullet and replace the gasket.

I was planning to get this set http://ift.tt/1wZOC6V

Anyone got any views on them - good or bad?

I will not use new bolts unless the old ones are out of spec.



So instead of a relaxing week doing a bit of gardening and watching tennis I get to mess about inside an engine (again!!).
