I've read where it's a good idea to remove the head gaskets and re-assemble without them. Something about, they crush and cause an issue. Is there anything else you need to do or change, in their place? Like a different head design?
Thanks |

I don’t believe a leak at the head/cylinder would create a rich condition with a manifold pressure system (MPs—djet)
If you broke a spring, you may have bent a valve…that happens. These car are designed to run slightly rich, and by todays standards they run very rich…but that keep the engine running cooler. |
