blown head gasket
I installed a new head gasket for a 1988 Columbia par car. It didn't last long and is now blown out again. Any ideas???TEX

Re: blown head gasket
Did you torque to 25ft/lbs?

Re: blown head gasket
No. I'm sure it was around 45lb.

Re: blown head gasket
I'd say that's why those head bolts don't need much.

Re: blown head gasket
Those head gaskets have to be torqued in a specific order too. I know it sounds silly but the manual mention the specific order and guys who have been working on these a lot longer than me swear to it also.
