So, you have a M42, so there is no plastic coolant pipe on the back of the head, just the one under the intake to worry about. The M42 has forged internals, so it is pretty bullet-proof as long as you keep it maintained (many examples of 500+ KM engines exist). Never let it overheat... __________________ James 95 active w/leather interior and sport interior conversion, Vaders, full M-Tech exterior conversion.
