In the process of doing the head gaskets on my van. Has anyone got any info on setting the valve clearance and what position the engine should be in? Its a 1.9 wbx. Thanks
Mitch

All the info you need is here (in our wiki) = https://club8090.co.uk/wiki/Hy ... _explained" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Have disturbed the liners whilst getting the heads off ?

Have you got the special sealer for the head bolts ?
