I have a 1959 TR3A that i restored in 2012 and recently i started getting preasure build up in the radiator and water blowing out the overflow so i have the head off and find the gasket is starting to let coolant into number 4 cylinder. I checked the sleave hights and find number 3 is 0.003in on the pushrod side and 0.001in on the manifold side all the others are arround 0.004in.
I dont want to take the cylinder out so i'm going to try Randall's trick with the 26SWG copper wire soldered to the new head gasket, my question is did he use 26 SWG .018in coper wire and should i solder the wire to all fire rings on the gasket?
