Death of a head

[Guest Jamee]

Brutal I know... :crying:  My Antifreeze decided to hang out with my oil...at a steady rate too.

 

so sad :no:

 

:fu:

so is it just the headgasket that blew, or did you kill the head too?

[datzenmike]

Head gasket likely. Is there a cloud of steam coming out the exhaust when warmed up and driving??

 

 

Very easy fix on a A series. No timing chain to worry about. Lift head and manifolds off together and replace gasket.

Head gasket. but this will be the 3rd ..maybe 4th one and ive had to have the head milled once. its toast. not going to bother with that head. I have a different engine so we're most likely just gonna swap engines since mine is so tired. not bother with changing just the head. Also while we had the camera in there we saw a steady drip of antifreeze.
