Porous casing/cylinder heads fix
Posted: Sun Feb 10, 2013 3:48 am
Thought I'd post some info on this as I've used these guys a couple of times with great results.
When my van was stood over the winter I used to find small droplets of coolant forming on top of the cylinder heads. You could actually see where the coolant was seeping through the aluminium. Anyhow, whilst I had it stripped down a couple of years ago I sent the casing and both heads off to this place. They came back after a couple of days and they've been fine ever since.
Obviously this is only relavent to people in the uk, but I'm sure other places do this type of treatment elsewhere.
Thought this might be useful to somebody.
