    I swear I seem to learn more from this channel than any other mechanic’s channel. Props to you Baz

    great video Baz never understood why engine manufacturers just give us torque settings for head bolts

      It gives a more accurate tightening compared to normal torque setting.
      It adjusts automatically depending on temp.
      It's a faf to do it but it works.

    Have an Accord here with valve damage on cy 1, head off too, 1.8 vtec engine fitted. Engine was revving to 11, guy missed a gearchange, put it into 3 instead of 5, something shat itself slightly (belt not chain on the older version) in the timing & bang... Loads of fun..

      I don't put prices on jobs as it keeps it fair for others that watch my content, as I'd hate to be the bloke on the internet that does it for ex amount.

    Are you on a salary or paid per job?

    These engines are common for head gasket failure

      Sounds like it's the owners fault, kept driving with a radiator leak overheating the engine and warping the cylinder head.
      The 1.8 Turbo is the one known for head gasket failure and fuel in oil dilution problems.
