[TR] Non-TR Head Gasket Question

[Geo Hahn]

I agree - some fast diagnostic work after the shut-down would seem to be in
order.

The first thing I would check is whether there is good spark when the
re-start is attempted as it sure sounds like something is getting heated up
and failing and that suggests the ignition to me.
