Hi All
Have a 1987 Z2.4L D series truck. I have replaced the head gasket twice. The last time I pulled the head I replaced it with a remanufactured head cause we found small cracks between the valves on 2 cylinders. Anyhow the head gasket has just blown again..%$#@. The motor did not overheat and there is no apparent problem with the deck of the block. The gasket lasted about 6000klm. Is this a common occurrance for Z2.4? what can be done to help prevent this? is ther a copper gasket available? hate to park my little utility truck for good...
Thanks TJM
