Hello guys, just finished my first ever head gasket and head rebuild!
The car drives a lot better than it did before, but as it was my first one, I think back through all the steps in case something could start going wrong.
My question is, if when I was placing the head on the HG and block a little oil dripped on the headgasket would it Start to fail? Or would when its torqued down, squeeze out any little drips of oil?
I did clean and wipe both surfaces had the head skimmed etc but just worried that as I'm placing it down if some were to cone out.
Any previous experiences/knowledge would be great, I'll either worry more or be relieved, cheers!
