Hi All,As i have had to take off the head of My Z1b again will i be able to re-use the new head gasket i fitted first attempt or is it false economy and should i buy another one(the engine never ran with gasket on and it looks unmarked)

...........To be 100%..... new one.............
BUT...... as it ain't run, & it will settle after a few miles, then need to be re-tightened anyhow, I'd reuse the b*****d....

i would take a chance all you have to lose is time as long as you are doing the work yourself
