Re: Root Cause of Head gasket Failure and a Fix?
I have not installed timeserts in several block. I bet that I have rejected more 99 and prior than I have actually install TimeSerts in.

I installed TimeSerts in several 99 and prior blocks and had the inserts pull while torquing them (never left = never came back). I have had several come in that have been done by other tech's at the dealer. This is how I learned what will hold and what will not.

We have a 00 in currently (2/5/2008) with Head gaskets out. Long story, but I will post pictures
