ok. So I got my head back from the shop and installed it AGAIN. This time I made sure I didnt put the headspacer on upside down (like a dolt!). Anyways, everything fit... this time.
And once again... I had a leak between the head and the block. So once again, I took the top part of the engine apart. Upon close inspection of the head spacer, gasket, and block I realized that every hole in the three match up perfectly. However there are some holes alone the center of the block (if you cut it in half longways ie: left to right) that dont match up with the gasket and spacer. the holes in the block are triangular and alot larger than the small ROUND holes in the gasket/spacer.
So all that to ask: Does the 2006 I4 need a different gasket/head spacer than previous years. I cant understand why I had another leak... AGAIN!!
And. With all the burning of oil and water in the cylinders. My pistons look like crap now. This car is like 5 months old. Have drivin it maybe 2 of those months and the pistons look like they're ancient! Is there some sort of cleaning solution I can buy to clean up my pistons
thanx.
ps: I've taken my head off so many times maybe I need to start training Hyundai tech guys. LOL.
