How to replace a head gasket? I replace the head gasket and lapping the valves in a diesel engine. This process is basically the same on gasoline and diesel engines. The engine in the video is a Mitsubishi KE70 in a Iseki mini tractor. The engine would not longer start because of low compression and I started to see oil in the coolant. It has gradually lost power and being harder to start before it would no longer start. I thought it was just a bad head gasket, but the engine also needed new piston rings to get the right compression, as seen in video PART 2.
