Hi.
I own an Asphalt 200 thp.
After starting with a bit of white smoke and then coolant loss I decided to order a head gasket tester kit from ebay. The liquid turned light green pretty much straight away confirming my fears of needing a new head gasket.
I contacted Gladiator Performance in Middlesbrough (after a recommendation) for a quote but have not received anything back despite ringing and texting. So I need to look at other options as I need it doing ASAP. I also may have the timing chain done at the same time.
Does anyone have any other recommendations please? Can't drive too far incase I make it worse.
Thanks guys

A lot of garages don't like customers supplying their own parts.

They pressure test the head apparently first.
