Delica l400 v6 6g72 egine removal and head gasket

Hi. After lots of research and trial and error, I replaced the head gasket plus complete engine gaskets, repaint , new hoses etc. I recorded a series of videos that I'm uploading during this week and next ( sorry I'm not a YouTuber so I had to learn how to do this) The reason I'm doing it is that I ...

Re: 2000 V6 Delica 6g72 Head gasket job/kit

well I got the headgasket kit and a lot of gasket fit well but the headgasket does not match the water passages, some of the wholes are very small so now I'm wondering if is the correct one.

2000 V6 Delica 6g72 Head gasket job/kit

I found an interesting You tube video on when not to change the head gasket. It goes through, seemingly, all the tests you could do troubleshooting head gasket symptoms so you don't change it when not needed. Called "Schrodingers Box" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVn-IDi7da8 He also li...

Passenger Electric Window stopped working

I have a similar issue, in a cold day the windows do half way up not all the way. In my Saab 900 I had the same issue and it is the motor regulator that protects it of overheating and melting and one way to solve it was to regrease the gears or bypass the regulator, it is just basically a tired moto...

milky oil and steam out the coolant filler

any milky oil means headgasket there is no way around that and if there is any bubbles then exhaust gasses are getting into your reservoir and that could explain the reason why the pressure build up so fast. We are in the same boat with my v6, headgasket job is coming. You can use those headgasket f...
