I did not, the workshop that did the 'EU kontroll' ( MOT) did
I just bought some octane booster from ( Its in the car, do not remember the
brand, havent tested it yet.)
Or, as someone has mentioned, to have a engine machine shop make a new
thicker head gasket.
The problem is, with the prices of work in Norway, it may just be easier to
by a new head ( a stage II is £599,
btw, that will give some extra BHP, hmmmm...)
