To use or not to use!!! 200x head gasket

[speed20]

Need to know if you think i could use a used head gasket...its not a cheap one, its the 3 piece metal one that does away with the "O" ring and is aftermarked....

No, dont even bother trying. You might be able to get away with it, but probably not for long. Its cheap insurance to use a new gasket.

I just cant seem to find any gaskets like the one i have around here....and the stock ones dont seem to work for me!!!!!! damn things!

i ordered up a complete gasket kit from my honda dealer yesterday (should have done it a week ago !)
and it was about 25 dollars. i asked hows come so cheap and was told it was there aftermarket brand that is just as good,,, we shall see.
