Question
Can you tell me the procedure for replacing the headgasket on my 1996 Honda 90AT. I'm a mechanic, but on golf course turf equipment and have all the tools, just need a little knowledge. Also a parts list if you have it.
Bill doing a head gasket on a Honda is a serious job. In most cases the cam belt and gear need removing. It is far beyond the scope of this site to give instructions. You may need some special tools as well.
I would highly recommend getting a service manual and following the procedure word for word. It can be a daunting challenge. Sorry I can't help much more, a head job takes up a full chapter in the service manual.
