Headbolts are single use on F7P/R
o no thats more money
i forgot to say the head needs skimmed.can that be done?
yes and bolts are 15 quid a set
ive got one of those haynes books and it says in it that you cant skim the head on a f type engine.
You really should have it tested and skimmed if needed.
lol, that's funny, mine was skimmed.Quote:
