that's not true, those that doubled gaskets are the less priviledge who can not afford to replace Top cylinder, when overlapping occur due to excessive over heating, the Top must be replace, but not all fingers are equall, due to kazeem vast experience, he can therefore suggest to the poor owner to do a reboil grinding on the Top cylinder, in the process left extral gap for compressing leakages, the gasket must be doubled. Note, these said set of cars must be outdated that need complete replacement, so all these non professional marketers dig more hole to your pockets as they endup calling on the condemned Kazeem to solve many of there problems . the different is kazeem repair, while them professionals replaced . in situation you don't have money to replace, your car stays donkey years in there workshop .

You dont deserve to own a car if you dont have money to maintain .Cars is not a basic necessities of life .
If you got a warped cylinder ,change it .If you dont have money ,use molue .
Very soon ,nigeria safery standard will soon upgrade to the level of impounding kazeem surgically operated car like your own because of not meeting up to safety and emmssson standard

abeg, u be mechanic? i never jamn this kind lady before, i think sey lady no sabi pass pinging
kudos, you tried

I'm still finding it difficult to believe someone actually typed this. This is one of the problems Nigeria face at the moment. Leaders that have no interest in how less privileged citizens live.
Do you know that in some parts of Nigeria, some drivers provide for their family members with this surgically operated vehicles? What happens to them when Nigeria got impound their vehicles?

honmusa:

Doubling the headgasket means you are altering the compression ratio .
By the time you finish the job ,your car will never give out the same performance .
If you are doing this because of hidden overheating issue ,i will advice you flee away from the kazeem before he dug a pit in your pocket .
Overheating is a symptons of a issue ,resolve the issue and the overheating will go away .The crude surgical operation your kazeem want to do on your car is called supressing the overheating which will spell doom for your engine .
If i were you,i will patronise a professional that knows his onion who will charge more but will give your car a permanent resolution than pay 1000 naira fee to kazeem that will destroy my expensive engine .

Should we then say RIP?

Kazeem is also human, he is working within the bounds of his knowledge and experience..why not educate him. How many machine shops in Nigeria can properly skim an overheated head to proper tolerance hence the makeshift solution. people who add aftermarket turbos to there stock engnes often do something similar so while it will reduce the compression( lower performance) i doubt it will destroy the engine

Two thumbs up, way up

Doubling a cylinder head gasket will never damage an engine but the vehicle may not run due to loss of compression.

It's amazing that people limit their internet data usage to only Nairaland

adanny01:


Compression definitely reduces but not bad enough to stop the engine from running well unless the car previously had compression problems.

Muumu talk. Its only in Nigeria we see car as luxury outside the country ur luxury cars are used for taxis and police patrol car.

Car is a necessity and not luxury oponu.

EgunMogaji:


If not done well, the car won't even start because of potential leaks between the gaskets.

In everythig we do ,we must consider safety to our enviroment first and safety to our self .Countless number of life have been lost dueto road crash caused by using these '' kazeem surgically operated vehicle'',alot of incident of vehicle fire disaster caused by kazeem wrongly bridging the wiring system ,even the rich are not spared when it happens .what about the late minister that lost his life due to over inflated tyre .This what you get if you have society that refuse to set a standard and regulation of important sector like automobile .Instead the industry is dominated by illiterates that i cannot even trust my 2 year daughter toy car with .
Poverty mentality has clouded our thinking faculty !!!! Using this kazeem surgically operated vehicle is just a going for a suicide mission that any of its essential component can suffer failure anytime. And if you want to kill yourself cause of ignorance and poverty , must you also also take some innocent road user with you .
Anytime i am fixing an electrical issue on car ,there is nothing that is more fustrated than trying to correct an electrical issue that another kazeem has previosly done on car .More time and effort is done to undo all these 'rewiring' than even the actual failure on the car .
I still stand by it that very soon all these moving disaster cars will be taken off from all our roads to create a safer enviroment for others .

honmusa:

You dont deserve to own a car if you cannot maintan it with accordance to safety standard and enviromental laws.we have a none working educational system and generation that is not using their brain to think that is why we can have such talk from people like you

Lokoyen:


Until i see a picture of your well maintained car(s) you lost my respect. I still maintain my point, not all kazeem don't know what they are doing.

I have a kazeem that will not torch ur car until he scan it. It is after scan he recommend either repair or replacement. Most times he repairs and that is what so-called professionals can't do.

I rebuilt my 2009 kia rio with double gasket as it is an interference engine that got warped with a timing belt cut, and on a journey to yenegoa from P.H. I noticed increased torque and lowered fuel economy. now I have a mazda B6 engine to rebuild for another car and want experts opinions on this double gasket...
am a car enthusiast, mechanic and do some tuning and actually know that doubling or increased gasket on an interference engine save your valve
this is not for overheating problems as i read chats here talking about overheats
