Well, that all certainly makes sense. More sense than my first thought that the cylinder had never ever fired! hahah I've never done headgaskets on a car that had blown one before, only precautionary replacements.
Thanks everyone!

One of the combustion chambers looks like it has never ever seen a flame!! The top of the chamber on the head is clean and shiny and so is the piston!! This c...

cam gears/sprockets removal tips
I am doing the headgaskets on my '90 non-turbo legacy and am stuck on how to get the cam gears off without a chain wrench or something similar. Can it be done?
Thanks!
Thanks!

WTB: A decent radiator that will fit a '90 auto, N/A, FWD
Looking for a decent condition radiator that will fit my '90 Legacy. It's a non-turbo, FWD, automatic model. Don't need the fans or anything else, just the radiator. Looking for something cheap.
Thanks,
