Subject:      Head gaskets
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;


anybody:
I just purchased an '81 Westy with only 58K on it. the heads had previously
been replaced. After taking it in to the local VW dealer I was advised the
head gaskets and push rod tube seals need replaced.
secondary followup by  a shop specializing in foreign cars and I am sure
much more exp than the guys at our dealer states that the kind of oil leak I
am getting is not head gaskets but should just replace the push rod seals.


any experience or thoughts out there?
Best regards,
