I have an ETA with an i head that is leaking very badly externally and my coolant is essentially oil. I'm guessing the kid I bought it from just kept adding oil instead of fixing the gasket. What gasket/set should I order? I'm not sure because I of the hybrid motor. Also I've read victor reins is a shitty brand so what would be considered a quality replacement or oem equivalent? Thanks for any input.

I haven't personally had a problem with victor reins.. Make sure the head isn't cracked too before you do a head gasket and waste all that time.Current Collection: 1990 325is // 1987 325i Vert // 2003 525i 5spd // 1985 380SL // 1992 Ranger 5spd // 2005 Avalanche // 2024 Honda Grom SP // 2024 Yamaha XSR700 // 2024 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon

also make sure its head is not warped, other wise this will be a short lived repair. With that much compression issue and its continued to be driven it likely was badly over heated so dont get your hopes up too far with you head castingThe American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public's money. -Alexis de TocquevilleOriginally posted by Fusion

Thank all of you for information. I'll get some stuff ordered and hope my head is salvageable!Comment

If I had your symptoms, I'd take the head off before I even ordered a gasket for it...
