Default Send back Mike

Mike Bartlett Have you called Dove about the heads? Send them back for a new set. If the failure is not for major engine damage, make them replace them for no cost to you. They have done this before Mike. I have seen people getting 2-4 sets of heads with problems before getting a good set. The first thing these heads need is a pressure test under water with 100-120 psi. Hot water is better and let sit for couple of hours and recheck. You know the song "TINY BUBBLES" by Don Ho. This saves alot of time and money before and port work. I know you should not need to do this but with the Dove problems, this is the first step. Rick L.
