Just wondering. I have read in post that you can reuse a head gasket and on others you cannot. Lets say you had a perfectly fine head gasket. No leaks. Nothing wrong with it at all. For some reason you had to remove the head. Like the spark plug port was striped. Now you have to remove head and get the port re-threaded. Remember head gasket is perfectly fine. No problems what so ever. You remove head have work done on head. Can you reuse the same head gasket? Or must you replace head gasket with a new one? I had a similar experience and I just replaced head gasket with a new one. Did I waste my money? Could I have used my old one being it was good in the first place? Just asking, so I know what I can and cannot do it the future.
