When replacing the cylinder head gasket, it is always advisable to have the head skimmed to eliminate any warping caused by overheating; after skimming, check the flatness of the surface using a straight edge and a feeler gauge; repeat the same check on the cylinder block; re-tap the threads of the head fixing holes and check the piston protrusion with a digital height gauge; then insert the gasket and the head, tightening the respective fixing bolts in a cross pattern using both a torque wrench and a standard spanner.
