Greetings all,

We have just removed the head on our MD1B and found the head gasket to be defective (explains low compression). However, we desperately need the following info:
Torque for head bolts
Valve clearance (cold)
New Gasket - do we also use sealant or not
What oil

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Paul.
