A blue circle?? If so it's most likely a monotorque gasket. Don't worry about retensioning

hey all, i have to retension the head on my g16b, but im not so keen to have to take the cam and rocker gear off to do so. I know suzisport have a tool that allows them to tighten it without removing the cam, does anyone know how to make this tool, or any other way around this? thanks |

retension the head at approx the 1000km mark on a fresh engine. |

Hi-jack but similar question, Block is good, Head is good, But there is an oil leak betwen the two. Should i put a new gasket to fix it? |

A blue circle?? If so it's most likely a monotorque gasket. Don't worry about retensioning
