Hi all,
Ive got a Landrover 90 so hopefully this forum covers this vehicle !.
She;s been blowing smoke sort of every 4th revolution !. so after cleaning oil pick up in sump. re-directing the oil breather. and then taking the rocker cover off only to discover one of the valve stem caps was off !!!. The decision was made to do the head gasket whilst I'm up to my elbows in it !. also had it over-running a couple of times. As I'm at the cleaning off stage. the cylinder head looks a damaged, just wondered what peoples thoughts were

 

It does almost look like a crack there. I would have it checked out by a machine shop

 

Thanks for the reply, i'd not even seen that...…. so i'll take a closer look and probably send it in to be tested
Cheers

 

No worries good luck
