H22 needs a little help...
My h22 just recently started sounding like a quiet diesel engine. It get a little louder as it revs up. I know I have a blown head gasket and I've been trying not to drive anywhere. Does anyone have a clue as to what would cause my baby to sound like a TDI jetta?!?!?!?

is the head gasket for an h22 seriously $140?? I called a local advance auto parts, and they told me $139.xx, and on top of that...they don't even have the repair manual at the store. Can anyone direct me to a walk thru of replacing the head gasket, or should I just say f it and take it to the mechanic. On top of that I don't know how to set the timing, and from a few pics i've seen, the timing belt needs to come off...is this right? and can anyone help me out?
This is just making me more pissed off the more research i do...someone please help!

Re: H22 needs a little help...
ok, buy a helm service manual, www.helminc.com that will have step by step instuctions and pics, with torque specs. and yes HG's arent cheap, but you could prolly do it yourself with basic tools and a torque wrench.
