What is a head gasket?
The head gasket maintains a seal between the engine block and cylinder head. It prevents oil, coolant and combustion gases from escaping the engine.
How does the head gasket work?
Most engines have two major components: the engine block and the cylinder head. These two halves must seal to one another and act as one piece, or the engine will fail.
The head gasket is a sealing layer of durable material that is sandwiched between the cylinder head and engine block. When tightened down, the cylinder head crushes the head gasket into the cylinder block, causing any imperfections to be sealed by force.
What are the symptoms related to a bad head gasket?
When the head gasket begins to fail, the engine may have no symptoms at all. They only begin to occur when the leak has reached an engine oil passage, engine coolant passage or the engine cylinder.
When that happens, the engine may be very difficult to start, and run roughly when idling. There may be oil or coolant leaking, and the engine may begin to overheat, or at least run hot. At this point, there may be coolant in the engine oil pan - this will look creamy and lighter in color than the oil. Also, the radiator or engine coolant reservoir may have a gurgling sound, the presence engine oil, or smell of combustion. And the check engine light will come on.
The coolant being burned in the engine will produce white exhaust that smells sweet, like engine coolant. When the head gasket fails completely, the engine will overheat within minutes of starting, will stall and then won't restart.
Can I drive with a head gasket problem?
Driving with a bad head gasket is hazardous to the engine, and may even be impossible. A failing head gasket typically will lead to your engine overheating and will eventually ruin the engine block, cylinder head, or both.
A car with a blown or leaking head gasket should both be towed to a repair facility.
How often do head gaskets need to be replaced?
Head gaskets can fail at any time, but they typically last at least 100,000 miles, especially if the oil and coolant are properly maintained.
In order to keep the gasket in good condition, dirty or contaminated fluids should be replaced on schedule, and the engine must run at the proper temperature. This is the best way to help prevent head gasket failure, along with avoiding aggressive driving.
Head Gasket Replacement Cost Estimates
The average cost for a Head Gasket Replacement is between $1,000.00 and $1,894 but can vary from car to car.
This was a fantastic video. You seem to be an amazing person. I have a 2015 Jeep Patriot, that is being rebuilt by a mechanic. I can only pray, he utilizes the same patience and motivation you possess. Thank you!!!🙏🏽
This is one of the most inspiring videos I've seen.
My Jeep Patriot has been in the shop for 3 weeks with a blown head gasket. And just 12 minutes of this video has calmed my nerves about it. Thank you!
Hello GX
I also have the same vehicle and with the same problem. Can you tell me what the cost is for a head gasket?
Thank you
@@candicerichardson2836 3k for the whole job. Replaced the head gasket and radiator, at the dealership. I live in Los Angeles
I thank you for the reply. I am hoping I don't pay that same amount. I googled online what it'll cost and the amounts were between $1,330.00 to $1,380.00. This is 2 much but I don't have a choice
Would have been nice to see how you removed the camshafts and the process from the beginning.
Great video!!! You're so talented. Thanks to you were able to find out what was wrong with our car. Thanks! 😍
Glad I could help!
Thanks for the video. Stay away from those black holes
Thank you Thank you. This is a great detailed video. 💪🏿
Maybe I missed it but shouldn't you check that the head is straight or i almost always have all aluminum heads resurfaced by a reputable machine shop , it's fairly cheep compared to pulling the head back off again . just sayin .
Literally came to comment section looking for a link to repair manual he used in video...would've had a new subscriber
great video and it should help first time mechanics very much too
Your an inspiration! Luv it. I'm going to fix my jeep due to this video. What book and where did u order it from?
I bought the repair manual. Could you list all the steps that are needed to replace the head gasket? I would rather not read 4619 pages
2015 jeep patriot cranks but no Start n shoots out antifreeze out of exhaust while trying to start it…any idea why?
Hello Jerry, I'm doing a head gasket on a 2015 Dodge Journey 2.4l Same engine and don't have the manual, this vid is a great help.i can't find much info on this without buying the $200 manual, anyone have any goood advice? Thanks.
where did you order the camshaft cap replacement bolts? I went to parts-geek and couldn't find them... help a brother out! thanks
Hate when they don’t wanna share the fucking manual like bro. Just help us out
You did not give torque specifications for the
Is it necessary to actually use the angle torque gauge at 57:32? Can you just eyeball it?
redoning mine and the cam caps dont sit flush can u just torque em down or is the camshaft bent
can you please link the book? I cant find it anywhere
Which vacuum are you using?
It doesn’t vibrates on drive and stoped?
Is this the same engine as 2007 Sebring 2.4 non turbo?
Where did you get the diagrams
yo its an okay video but these are important things that ive been trying to figure out the whole time
Hi where can find free repair manual
what service manual did you use?
If anybody here needed to know you don't need 2 torque wrenches. You just need ft lbs and use conversion chart available online. Don't really know why he'd make a video showing a couple of steps. Pretty worthless IMO. Not hating but needs to show all steps
Your right. Mine has both marked on it anyway but yea conversion method exists.
Can I remove the oil pump alone without taking the whole engine apart?
One more question? Would my oil pressure gauge light is on. Would this mean my pump is bad?

@@jesusyanez6391 Potential causes for oil pressure turning on are: Wear of engine parts, Damaged pressure sensor, Lack of oil change, Clogged oil passages, Clogged Oil filter, Faulty oil pump.
