Cant find it in the search....
I have a '91 ej22 engine in my VW van. The head gasket(s) need replacing. Besides the head gaskets do I need anything else to do the job? Bolts? Guess I'm looking for a parts and tools needed list.
I will be replacing one crankshaft gasket. Timing belt has only 20,000 miles on it so I think I will keep that.
Head gasket replacement parts/tool list.

Re: Head gasket replacement parts/tool list.
I would say a torque wrench with 12 point socket, and a set of metric 6 points. Both Deep and shallow.
A pulley tool or Big Screwdriver/prybar.
A Small allen wrench to pin out the tensioner.
