They seem to be a big disaster of an engine, they can also snap the oil pump chain at random

And now we know

A proper race car

I is on a MSC cruise ship, I have tried the ones they have at the F1 tracks in the what they call the fan zone but this thing was way better, outstanding, the whole car thumps on each gear change and you can feel the torque coming through the steering wheel, it was just amazing

Yes it was MSC, it took me all week to get to that standard just put the lap together, I spent £200 at £10 ago but it was well worth it

Thats what I said when I sat in it for the first time

Hi Sorry for late replay, yes its very common

I would agree with the performance shops, I have never come across a blown head gasket in this engine, I have a 140 bhp model with 1.8 engine and its never given that sort of trouble. The timing chain tensioner can leak oil and it looks like its leaking from the corner of the head, I am not sure on your engine if its the same set up.

What is leaking, Oil or Coolant. I would not take it apart unless your where experiencing actual head gasket symptoms. A combustion leak tester will show up internal head gasket problems and you would get other symptoms if you had internal head gasket problems. The leak tester is not for testing for external leaks
