Alan and Malcolm, you are not understanding how I tighten the head down possibly I didn’t explain things correctly. I do everything the same as you do fitting the head to correct tightness filling with coolant and then running the engine to running temperature. I then do the final tightening whilst hot. I don’t let it cool down before the final tightening.

John Mason.
Would you believe it "Her who must be obeyed" refers to my Ruby as the toy.
