Hello All
I have had to rebuild my 2017 Tohatsu M50D2 after a thermostat failure and overheat seize and have a slight water leak in the head plate gasket. Can i remove the head plate with out damaging\cracking the head gasket seal? i have to remove the head bolts as well as the head plate bolts and dont want to have to replace the headgasket again. I am thinking ill remove the head plate replace the gasket and use rtv gasket sealant.
I have had the engine idling in a bucket for 30mins and there is no water in the cylinders
Any advice would be much appreciated
Thanks
