I have a 53 plate Warrior and the bubbles in the expansion tank didn't stop after I removed the EGR valve and cooler.
I will be doing the head gasket v soon. Just thought I would ask you guys what parts I should get alongside the obvious head gasket?
I thought I would get the cam shaft seals, rocker cover seal and cylinder head bolts from Milners. What else should be done while I'm in there?
I don't think I will be replacing the belts, as I did them about 5k ago.
I will be getting the head tested and new injectors if needed.

water pump might not be a bad shout while you've got the belts off

Unless you have a tension gauge renew the timing belt. They don't like being taken out of tension and If reused there is a formula for re tension a used belt, but I don't remember what it is because a new belt is so cheap its not worth the faff.

Sound advise fella's.
I did all the belts about 18 months ago. When I was in there I did the water pump and the crank pulley.
I'll renew the cam and balence belts when I have the head off. It's a no brainer!
Where do I get the choice of gasket from? Milners only have 1 in stock with no mention of thickness.
