BX forever blowing bubbles...

Post by cauchoiskev »

Hello, my BX14 (TU engine) was bubbling in the radiator, so I changed the head gasket this weekend, but still getting bubbles in the collant. Damn !
Maybe the head needs skimming, but I noticed the new gasket (from local factor, not Citroën) had the coloured protruding lines on the opposite side (top) from the one I took off. Could this be a problem ?
Also, I suppose the gasket is not re-usable, once the bolts have been tightened ? Anybody know whether Cit allows skimming of the TU heads ?
Thanks in advance,
Kevin

I had the head skimmed on my old AX GT with the TU engine, no problems afterwards.
