Head gaskets leaking oil so that is getting done this week ( by me )
i was gonna replace the head gasket, water pump, rollers, idlers and belt.
but cannot afford all of it, will i be ok doing the head gasket and water pump then do the belt Kit at the end of the month.
or just the gasket and then the rest later on?
thanks

When was the last time the belt was changed? Is it due one right now or can it wait a month? Personally if its getting done at the end of the month anyway I'm sure it will be ok.

the head is being skimmed tomorrow
just cant afford the whole lot in one go
so was just gonna do the gasket, or maybe do the gasket and just belt and then do the water pump and cambelt kit at the end of the month.
no idear when it was last changed tho.
what order would you do it in? or would you just not drive it untill it's all done at the end of the month?

Cambelt is pretty important. That would be my priority over the water pump.
