Hi

The 4 gasket washers for the head gasket- do they go on top or underneath the head gasket?

Scott
 
most of the gasket kits come with lots of washers, for various places...new copper washers for the head bolts, etc etc..take a pic of what you're talking about if ya can, and let us know which GS you're working on, that way we can help ya out better...
 
these are the 4 washers that go on the four corners of the head gasket, where the studs pass up through for the dome nuts. Again, on top or underneath?
 
"Again, on top or underneath?"

All GS heads and gasket kits are the same, they go back in the way they came out. :rolleyes:
 
rubber on one side and on the other it's just a rubber ring in the middle, not out to the edges like the other side
 
I'd try and answer you but I have no idea what type of bike you speak of.
 
Fit the gasket onto the cylinders with the pressed face on top (facing the head ). Place the rubber coated washers central to the gasket holes and the studs. Fit the cam chain elongated ring in the tunnel groove.
Now carefully lower the head onto the gasket, and torque it up in the correct sequence. If you have managed to source a genuine Vesrah gasket, you should end up with a good sealing top end.

Good luck, my last Vesrah set was cheap copy, that leaked.
