Hi there this is my first post on this forum and i am so happy i found this forum. I am an engineer but i have never worked on american cars and the biggest engine i have worked on is a rover 3.5 v8.
I have just bought a 94 explorer and I need to replace the head gasket i have sourced the parts at alot of money about 150 quid which is about $200 for head gaskets and strech bolts. You may have noticed that i come from little old england. Can anyone tell me what is involved in changing the head gasket and do i need to get the head skimmed. I havnt actualy picked it up yet but need to order parts becaus eit takes ages for parts to come.
