many thanks for replies.i know the o rings need to be done,but this is nothing to do with bad running.does anyone think the problem could lie with the waterpump causing coolant loss and very slight pressure build up in header tank.top hose is mildly hard when warm,but can be compressed...

hi fanatic,new plugs and new leads fitted when i did head gasket,has been running 100% until now,suspicion is water pump but looling to see if it could be anything else.forgot to mention heads were skimmed when gaskets done.
