Head gasket in my future? Posted by Don [Email] (#1099) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Don) on Mon, 1 Sep 2014 13:42:47 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
A few weeks ago. I replaced the head gasket in my 01 Vert, it had antifreeze in the oil, fill coolant fluid message, overflow tank was pressurized days after it was last run, and the antifreeze smelled like exhaust.
Now, my son's 99 9-5 2.3, is showing similar symptoms, fill coolant message, pressurized coolant tank when cold.
Compression reads 195-155-175-200, when I add oil to the low cylinders it comes up to 175-180.
The difference on this is there isn't any antifreeze in the oil, and the antifreeze doesn't smell like exhaust.
Head gasket?
