I've been told repeatedly i don't have one because there is no water/coolant in the oil... nor do I have any white smoke or water coming out of the tail pipe.. yet I keep losing a little bit of water... and it has boiled out like that. I've replaced radiator, clutch fan and other things to help keep the vehicle cool.. yet.. problem persisted. Awesome.

    I know this video is 4yrs old but I hope someone will see my comment. I have been having the same issues on my PT Cruiser. Not one radiator shop will listen to what I have to say they ALWAYS state because its a pt cruiser it is the head gasket. My car has passed 2 compression tests, 2 pressure tests, the old radiator had a 6in crack so I bought another radiator and replaced it I also bought and replaced, the thermostat is new, the thermostat housing is new, radiator hoses are new the fan unit is new, the reservoir is new also the temp sensor gauge is new. There is no milky stuff in my oil, the car does not smoke. The car does not run rough, and IT NEVER OVER HEATS. The temp gauge stays at half or below. There are NO COOLANT LEAKS. But yet, after driving it and then turning it off you can hear the bubbles. I have been burping the system for months due to the old radiator having a crack. Sometimes the reservoir is half full sometimes after days of driving it will fill. 😞
    So what is the issue? I do not believe it is my head gasket. It has passed too many tests that has proven no head gasket issues.
    WHAT AM I MISSING?

    @cenchloraadums3143 4 ปีที่แล้ว +23

    I know lot of people suggest this method to identify a blown head gasket. But I don't know how accurate this is. Modern engines use presurized coolant systems that operate typically above 15psi. This pressure is achieved by the expansion of coolant and when the radiator cap is open, flow of water pump wouldn't be able to keep up with expanding coolant so it would tend to overflow. And again since the desired pressure cannot be achieved the coolant would start to boil and create large amount of water bubbles. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    This is literally what my integras coolant looks like right now. Last week it was fine now its cloudy AF and swirling and bubbling. Still if you see this its the best outcome for a blown head gasket provided it hasn't overheated and there is no oil in your coolant. If you see cloudy coolant like this stop and park the vehicle and dont drive it unless its to a mechanic to get a new head gasket.

      @@rollthelosingdice its funny cause it wasnt actually the head gasket. i dont understand how or why but i used redline water wetter to see if it really did as claimed. it did lower coolant temp by around 8 degrees instead of the advertised 15-20 or more but had some adverse effects. it caused what looked like oily bubbles in my coolant that resembled a blown head gasket. i actually hydrocarbon tested the coolant after the above post and found nothing. i drained the coolant completely, refilled and drove for 200 miles, then drained again and it quit swirling and bubbling. i ended up finding out the head gasket was fairly new at the time of post because i pulled the head 3 weeks ago to refurbish it due to a burnt exhaust valve. there wasnt any wear on the gasket. i did however find more carbon inside the engine than i have ever seen in anything anywhere. it looked like someone had driven with 16 leaking valve stem seals for the last 50k miles.

    I have a coolant leak on an older 97 Dodge Caravan. It is coming out of the exhaust. (Actually the muffler) But the car runs fine as long as I put more coolant in the radiator. No white smoke out of the exhaust. No milky residue in the radiator or in the oil. It's been like this for two years. The vehicle isn't worth the cost of replacing the head gasket. Any suggestions?

    Installed new radiator, cap, water pump, temp sensor, thermostat, hoses , and tried to burbed the air out of the system for days. When it cools down the next day it needs more water in radiator , and the overfill tank is overfilled . The old radiator was sludged up and I had the intake gaskets replaced twice in a shop over the last seven years. They did a blown head gasket test and said it was ok . Twice in the last three months when I check the oil it has a quart more than it was filled too.I have not driven it in a month but all this work. The oil is so clean ( it's been changed three times in 6 months; all of 10,000 miles) I do not see water in it. The engine temp will not stabilize and fluctuates at times getting very close to overtemp and I shut it down. It's a 2002 Buick Century 3.1 . From your video I must conclude it is a headgasket. Any other particular test you recommend ?

    • @doublej4077
      @doublej4077 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@jayislander Yes I did . In retrospeck the blown head gasket tests were not that conclusive because I had a minute crack in the radiator and could not build enough radiator pressure for a good test.It was suggested , not approved that I build up the radiator cap seat area with epoxy as they had seen erosion over time cause leaks , and the radiator would not hold pressure . I never got around to that. The oil change place said it was leaking pretty good. I MYSELF replaced the radiator , thermostat, uppers & lower hoses for $800 when they wanted $1300. That fixed the leak but It was enough to cross the threshold and cause the head gaskets to fully blow and become worse. The test the shop did not only revealed blown head gasket causing water to go into the oil but I had lower engine problems. I had to replace the engine. I could have fixed the radiator with some good epoxy but this old car had 180000 on it. It was my fathers car so it has sentimental attachments. So the short answer was I had blown head gaskets with water leaking into the oil (1 quart extra on the dipstick of oil per month) and a hairline fracture in the radiator which caused me a lot of headaches and loss of water to cool the engine down. It would seep out while driving but I never really saw a pool of water on the driveway. The crack was on the back side of the radiator and you could not see it. When I removed it I pressure tested it and FINALLY could see where the leak & crack was at.

      One other thing ...the crack was up high on the hidden backside , so whenever the radiator was tested there really was no water available at that level to spew water out of when pressurized and tested . When I took it off I filled it to the rim with water , capped off the radiator, and when pressurized the fracture became evident with water seeping out of it , and I FINALLY confirmed the fault !

I got new head gasket waiting on several other parts cam chain tensioner needed im wondering do i really need to set tranny lock pin ? I think my timing is already off so im gonna set to top dead center cylinder 1 and 6 try an get head off with cam lobes attached. I believe i can do it..n have to worry bout setting the timing again in order to start vehicle at that time.

    Cool the engine down. Then pressure test the radiator and all combustion chambers (remove spark plugs). If you are loosing pressure at the radiator and one or more of the chambers, you have a head gasket leak. If you are loosing pressure at the radiator only but none of the chambers, and no coolant seeps into the oil, then you have either a leaky radiator or a broken water pump gasket. I highly doubt it is your radiator or water pump gasket based on what I observed in your video (revving engine and massive bubbles blow out of radiator cap area)...seems likely a blown head gasket between coolant passages and one of combustion chambers in head.

    I got a Fiat 128 rally 1974
    The radiator cap vacuum part is gone and have no rubber seal on bottom only big top rubber seal. So the water is going freely to the coolant bottel. The cap is open inside. So the water have no pressure and can go freely back and forward without any valve have to open.
    Now.. can this be the reason my kar overhead after so 10 km or in traffic light it get FAST overheat?
