Let us know how it goes on replacing the head gasket, I will be doing mine shortly. It was blown due to overheating. Good luck.

This thread is over 2 yrs old, and I'm pretty sure the original poster has sold the Q and is no longer active on NICO.

There is an update thread linked in here somewhere.

Which cylinder was leaking [pictures look like none where] and the CH gasket was intact?

Be sure to use all brand new head bolts. Reassembly will be 5x tougher than a strip down.
