Hey guys,
Was talking to a local mechanic today who'd just has a crv come in showing symptoms that it was leaking past the head gasket. when they pulled the head off they found that the cylinders looked to be sunken too far into the block. 'its like the sleeve has sunk down into the block' was how he described it. when he put a straight edge over the block he found they were all a few thou below the deck.

Having peaked my curiosity i thought I'd see if anyone had had a similar issue with this motor???
