Blew cylinder head gasket north of Sligo. Phoned Carl Nash and they had Peter Devaney on the scene within an hour. Peter took the three of us home to Inver, Co. Donegal. A bit disappointed not finishing and having the crack with the rest. That's 4 gaskets blown in less that 20 thousand miles. I'm looking for another engine. Anyone got one for sale?

Great pictures!
Terrible shame about Maggie not making it, don't give up on her yet though!
I'm surprised that there weren't any 26 minute head gasket replacements done at the side of the road as have been done before!
maybe the block and head need to be skimmed?
Give her another chance!

Hoping that'll sort it.
