About Head Gasket
These engines are fitted with two head gaskets
of 0.1mm thick and 0.2mm thick. It is
suggested to adjust the total thickness
according to atmospheric temperature,
humidity and glowplug used.
At early stage of running-in, when a glowplug
tends to burn out early or when high
nitromethane content fuel is used, try to run
the engine as it is or removing a 0.1mm
gasket.

try to run the engine removing a 0.2mm
gasket.
