Tried 2 cork rocker gaskets and today fitted the rubber gasket from the 1.8 CVH sierra and it still leaks at the front left and the side by the cam pulley

 

1.8CVH

fuck cork gaskets, get a rubber one which is supposedly off a 1.8cvh sierra. ! cork ones are wank.

*edit*

i'll try reading the full post now

is it DEFFO the gasket leaking and not the cam seal?

are the bolts tightening up fully and is the surface the gasket sits on the head clean/flat? is the rocker cover bent ?

 

Yup deffo the gasket leaking bud.

rocker cover didnt look bent it sat flat on the surface i put it on anyway.

Its going into zoomotorsport thursday

 

hmm, strange, are you using the strange shaped washers aswell? must be the rocker cover not sealing proper, as cant see the head being out of shape or worn and the new gasket. .

 

Yup using the boomerang shaped washers as well
