    Head Gasket tomorrow morning, need advice

    I got going on it and what I thought was the head gasket started to look like the cam seal, and then I realized I had no way of getting the crank pully off so I had no choice but to put everything back together. I'm going to order the tool to hold the crank and I'll just keep an eye on the oil...

    Head Gasket tomorrow morning, need advice

    I only bought the timing belt, head gasket and bolt set. I'll check the prices on all of the other belts tomorrow morning when napa opens. I'll keep my Haynes book and Mitchell pro demand close haha

    Head Gasket tomorrow morning, need advice

    Do I need I take the crank bolt out for this job? I'm replacing the timing belt and I think I can just loosen the tensioner and slide the belt off, but I could be wrong. I have a friend bringing his air compressor and a straight edge

    Thanks for all the advice, I have studied for hours about it, I have a friend who's done a few on vw and audis coming to help. Unfortunately I don't have an air compressor, or a crank tool, so that's going to be interesting

    Head Gasket tomorrow morning, need advice

    Moonroof drain r&r

    I'm hoping it's just clogged and a little compressed air will fix it, if it doesn't work I'll let you guys know

    I've been wanting to use an air hose to blow down it and see if that would fix it, I'm just procrastinating. The leak is on the passenger side.

    Knocking coming from engine bay

    Its not a ticking valve or anything like, its like a solid thud. It tends to only be one or two thuds either right when i get on or off the throttle. I'd go out and make a video but I live in Maine and we are getting dumped on with bad weather. Im going to take a closer look at the mounts this...
