I tryed chainging my cylinder head nuts today.  I managed to finde some of
the correct grade from a mini garage, so they are infact off a mini, as such
have a lip round the bottom.

I undid all the top nuts, and then replaced them all with the mini nuts.
This was done with the coolent still in the system, and I didn't disturb the
head gasket.  The result there was a little, tiny improvement, but that was
almost nothing.  It still is not blowing into the water, and I don't think
its blowing into the oil.

I think the head has to come off again.
