BX's Build diary

[BORNXenon]

Got some more done on the engine this weekend.
Although I don't have a stud extractor as of yet, I thought I would cheat and weld a nut on to each of the rounded bolts to allow me to get a socket on it.

Rounded bolt, moral of the story - don't trust a garage!


Nut welded on..


Success!! Bolt extracted..


Finally, cylinder head off to reveal a non OEM head gasket that by the looks of things was in the process of failing - again, don't trust a garage!
