Replacing a head gasket is really easy to do. Alot of people think its brain surgury but it really isn't. Just drain all the coolant out of your motor, take off the intake/exhaust manifolds and valve cover,mark the timing belt and slip the timing belt off, and unscrew all 10 head bolts and the head will pop right off, buy a new headgasket, check head for any warpage,clean off all old gasket material off head/block, torque the head back on to factory specs,slap on the manifolds and properly put back on the timing belt, refill with antifreeze and you are done. :smoker:
