#392, "RE: how to identify the bad head gasket?" In response to In response to 4
Hey Adel, does the head need to be retorqued 500 miles after reinstalling the head with a new MLS gasket? Is it necessary or just an extra precaution?
Also, I'm starting to think that the dealer is right in saying 155 to 190's is normal compression. Since you have a milled head with up to 210 compression, and mine is milled with all four cylinders in the 220's, I'm thinking anything over 200 is high right?
Do you have an auto or manual? My auto is acting kinda weird. Some days it will stall at every other light, other days (most days) its fine, with cam gears set 0-0. Is your idle perfectly smooth like stock, or at least a little bit rougher? Thanks.
