ok, so ill be changing my head gasket in the next week or 2, just wondering while ive got the head out, what else should i check or change? oil/water pumps? i'll be changing plugs and leads, would like suggestions as i plan on keeping the car for a while and id rather change it all now than bit by bit, its a 95 ef gli with 187km on it.
thanks in advance

head gasket
head bolts ( but that is a given) exhaust gasket intake gasket rocker cover gasket ( only if required) spark plugs spark plug leads oil and oil filter thermastat (recommend a 82 degree to stop the car from over heating, if this was the promblem in the first place ) radiator fluid fuel filter timming chain (again only if required) i only change the water pump and its gasket if its leaking or has failed. these are the major ones i replace when doing a head at a minimum then you could think of doing some head work and/or cam while your at it saves you doing this twice.

if i remeber correctly i think i paid about 100-120 bucks for a timing chain kit.
that gave me the chain, tensioner, gears and gasket.
