Sorry my bad english... I'm a Finnish. And sorry to waste Your time.
Anyway, I appreciate your reply.
Bad tool = torque wrench torx E12 which should be long model because of the cylinder head construction in the middle of the cylinder head. It was diffucult to get the right tool.
The cylinder head has been skimmed before the first installation and skimmed slightly again before the second one for to be sure it's really ok.
You are right, Gasket Cement or similar should not be needed but please tell me how to check the surface of engine block ? There are no scratch or anything to be seen and the surface is clean and bright.
The reason for changing cylinder head gasket was due to camshaft belt, the tension roller failed and the belt jumped from the camshaft, some valves were hit by pistons. Before the failure there was no leak at all.
Why not to "compensate" small failure by using some additional sealant liquid, it´s very common way to fix small leaks and basically to be sure that the sealant doesn´t have any leaks ?
