    My former mechanic who totally messed with my car.
    Told me 'I had a completely blown head gasket because there was oil in the coolant resovoir... and that I need to replace the engine immediately that week."
    i later caught him lowering my tired pressure down to 18 pounds each tire. I just set it the night before to 32 pounds each.
    I also caught him under my hood when I didnt' ask him to work on my car and found my valve cover bolts were all loosened. He put fresh oil in the air intake next to the air filter, loosened the bolts to my oil pan and a few other things I fixed.
    #1 I just had the entire car inspected at an inspection center. So the week before I checked the bolts on everything to make sure everything was snug etc... oh he also loosened "ALL" the bolts on the fender to which I also checked the week before and they were all tight... not to mention I just got my car back from a fender bender to which they had to replace fenders, bumper etc. so I know the bolts were tight...
    #2 Here's the deal, the car ran great. I mean before he messed with it and also after I cleaned it all up, he put oil in the throttle body and MAF Sensor.. So once I cleaned all this up, tighten up the valve cover, oh to which I just replaced the month before, I mean the gasket, I set tire pressure correctly tighten up oil pan bolts etc. etc... it ran like a champion again...
    #3 I took it to another mechanic who checked my car out for any signs of a blown gasket and said, "Other than someone pouring oil into your overflow container, there's nothing wrong with your car." He drove it also and said it has full power, which it still does 3 years later..
    I've cleaned out the resovoir yet oil still comes back. I am wondering if maybe he poured it into the radiator as well... cuz it still runs strong.
    #4 I had the engine rebuilt 5 years before he touched it.... P.s. it has never over heated. WE put on the colder thermostat so it never even hits the 1/2 way mark.
    #5 I have no brown sludge in the radiator at all. It's green fluid like it came. No crank case milkshake either.... no blue smoke or any abnormal smoke out the back either...
