benwall Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 I have to remove the barel and the barel head as a silly bolt on my rev3 has decided to leave the tread in the barell bit , so has anyone got any tips for when removing this?, im planning on removing it from where the radihator is i believe it will fit through there with the sides off of the frame (heard this on another thread). Also im planning on renewing the gaskits as im meant too whilst im there so how much gasket sealent should i use on the gaskets and what type will i need to use on these gaskets? Thanks Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Ben You are about 16 years of age, right? (Houmour me here) Gasket cleaning normally requiere a razor blade(which you may not be familiar with) Single edge is preferred! Surfaces must be perfect, with no nicks or gouges! Repeat, do not nick the alli! Scrape backwards with the blade once the majority is off, to remove the rest. Surface perfectly smooth to toutch, no sealer required as the gasket does its job. No bodge inside engine either, stuff with rags to keep it out. Screw it up and you are done!
