we had experienced that many times with different cases and the solution is always new tophead gasket.... reminder: any gasket maker wont work on any gasket with coolant. gasket maker only works on pure oil without coolant...
just a question papi turb:Dhow does the old head gasket affect the coolant going down to the reservoir if it was not change to a new one after a changing the cam and the valve spring for example?...hehehe:Dthankzzzz

if you noticed there are like curve linings on ourtophead acting as springs which may flatten due to heat and compression. removing and putting it back may sag the gasket linings

soaking o-ring- rubber gasket to a gas make it expand. putting sealang or gasket maker make it expand too. in my opinion. i replace my old o ring/rubber gasket from top cylinder head cover, o ring to my coolant top cover its big and small and my problem is gone.

that has nothing to do with the coolant going down to reservoir bro

papz I'm just confused. w/c of these gaskets are needed to be replaced? I do have a problem too. but it's like the reverse. my reservoir was drained. i asked sir carlo he said it's not normal. I added new coolant if it drained again maybe i need to replace it. thanks

pag kinalas head at di nagpalit head gasket pede mag kakasingaw sa head, o kaya katagalan din. yung singaw dadaan sa water jacket ng block at head, magkakahangin ang linya ng cooling system, waterpump, radiator hose at radiator, itutulak ang tubig papunta sa reservoir at saka tatagas hanggang maubos ang tubig sa rad. kaya mejo magiinit ang engine, pag napabayaan, overheat na. para matesting kung may singaw ang head, alisin takip ng rad., pag ni rev dapat walang bula ang tubig sa rad., gumagalaw lang dapat.
