renew cylinder head COVER gasket?

Jezath · Sep 21, 2010

Hi there,

I want to check to see if the cowboy who did my mothers car set the timing right before i start the engine after my crank pulley replacement..

The question is, the car has only done 50 miles since the last gasket was fitted... Do i really have to spend 20 quid on another one??

Thanks in advance

Tim

Hi, what makes you think it needs a new gasket.. can you let us know what landy you have and what the probs are ?

Jezath · Sep 21, 2010

the only reason behind it is it says in the manual whenever you remove it to discard the gasket and fit a new one, all i wanna do is check the timing on it to make sure he did it right.. Thanks

Its a td5 disco 2 1999

I have another thread on here about the problems of late with the td5 same section entitled crankshaft pulley bolt.. some pics of the old pulley too, although they are a little large :lol:

so its the rocker gasket we're talking about... if thats tha case if it's not leaking you dont need to renew.

Dont know much about TDs but why would you take off the rocker cover to check the timing
