my head gasket on my K5 is leaking coolant. not much, just enough to bug me! this is the second time this has happened! I put the gasket on dry! should I be using a sealant on the water jacket part of the gasket? Or maybe it's just a cheap gasket? whats a good one? Anyone ever have any problems with the high compression gaskets and do I need to re jet or anything?
