    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Finally got my new gasket, which I guess is the new suzuki all metal oem. It doesn't have rubber O-rings on the corners as the old one. There are no O-rings separately on the parts fiche. Do I need some sort of o-ring with this type of gasket? Don't want to put this together and have leaks. terrylee:confused:
 
Head gasket. Just went and took another look and it appears the corner hole diameter is same as the diameter of gasket with O-rings. (non metal old oem?) terrylee
 
help!

help!

Did search on here for mls head gaskets and looks like some have had problem with this new type of oem leaking oil. One said he put thin layers of silicone sealer around where o-rings should be and leakage stopped. One suggested torqueing it down a little more. Anyone else had trouble with these new head gaskets, or have an opinion?
 
Stock MLS gasket. They are better but less forgiving for warped surfaces.
