[308] Gasket Question

You realise you're going to have to pull the crank out to get the pistons out yeah?
Which means new rings/bearings and linished crank.

When was the last time you worked on a motor, there is not one I can think of, ford, holden, isuzu, nissan etc that requires the crank to come out to remove the rod/piston combo...

No, you don't HAVE to. But you're a dribbling idiot if you don't.

A mature answer from a very educated man.
