Slightly off topic form the other head gasket thread so thought id start a new one are 6a 9a and abf gaskets all the same i can get a reletively cheap ABF steel gasket thats good quality, it would be for a 6a block with a KR head (i know the KR gaskets are different and not reccomended on the 2.0li blocks thanks
I just picked up my 9A head gasket from VAG but stupid me forgot to order the steel 9a/abf one and i have a composite one. pn 048 103 383 B Does it matter? OR should i swap it for a steel.
Just compared the old 1.8 gasket with the new supposed 9a gasket and the 9a does look maybe up to a 1mm bigger all the way round. how much bigger should the bore size be?
it's ok just checked the sizes i have got the right size but it's still a composite one. I'm just going to use it anyway.
whats the torque setting for clinder head bolts and procedure foir doing them up i cant fiund it in the gayness manual. Bloody thing doesn tmake sense. i found the bolt sequence but cant find anything else about it.
