WATCH FOR THE GROUND STRAP

WATCH FOR THE GROUND STRAP
This happens far too often. After servicing late Chrysler Hemi heads, they’re back within a day or 2. If the installer is not careful, they get the ground strap between the head and the gasket during installation. Once they are torqued down the damage happens, and leaks will appear at start up. The head will be back for repair. I try to warn the customers to be aware when they pick up their heads, the first time.
