Lancer 4g13 Engine

[E L N I N O]

Im doing an engine repair due to a timing belt breakage on my lancer cs1a 2002 which has a 4g13 16v sohc. Im finding it hard to find the needed parts such as head gasket, exhaust/inlet values, etc. Anybody has experience buying lancer 4G13 engine parts? I searched in wijerama, panchikawatta and even in ebay! The damn agents have it but who can tolerate their figures?

Another thing. my baas is saying values can be realigned and put again since they are only bent slightly. Is this a normal practice? Also i heard you can cut gaskets locally. But my one is a metal. What are my options?

thx for da contact machan. i called him, but he seem to be dealing only second hand parts. btw can i use second hand values? he has stuff for cedia. but my thingie is a brand new model. every part seem to differ slightly and hence impossible to find chked da prices at agents. going singapore n bringing down parts by myself is cheaper!

aiyo machan i didnt see ur reply yesterday i searched in panchikawatta again n finally able to find da head gasket kit and the valve seals. exhaust/inlet valve quest was in vain - had no more options so i had to go to the agents

thanks for offering to help machan. i need the car by this weekend that y i cudnt wait any longer

here are the places i bought stuff from:

timing belt - supreme motor house, wiejrama

timing wheel - krishan motors @ watta, panchikawatta (second hand)

adjuster - s.p. auto enterprises, panchikawatta

water pump - pubudu motors, rathmalana

head gasket kit & valve seals - ranasinghe motors, panchikawatta

exhaust/inlet valves & plugs - agents

this is just for the benifit of anyone who is looking for engine parts for a 4G13. hope its not against the rules.
