is it just me or are ACL gasket not worth the cork they are made out of?
i went to my local repco and they sold me a JN606 for my 1.3 and its no where near fitting. does anyone know of another gasket that does fit?

what was wrong with it? from memory if it says "barina" on it, that one fit my sierra no problems. Stick the gasket onto the the rocker cover first (bend/press in the cork tabs to lock it onto the rocker cover) then just bolt it down. worked fine for me.
