Best Answer

If you have a bad head gasket , or the head is warped or cracked , you can get

coolant in your oil and/or into the engine cylinders so you get white smoke coming

out of your exhaust even when the engine is warmed up ( I'm not a mechanic /

technician , I'm sure a professional can tell you more )

  • I have been buying cars and vans that have blown head gaskets for myself at a reduced cost and I have had great success repairing them without disassembling the engine. Its very simple to use and is a permanent repair. It costs 20.00 and its added to the radiator. It mixes with antifreeze and does work if you follow the simple directions. My cousin has a garage and has been using this stuff. Its very hard to find and is not found in part store's if you want any email me kerisvery@aol.com

How do you know if it is a blown headgaskets?

There are several possible indications of a blown head gasket: If the head gasket is blown between adjacent cylinders there will be poor or no compression in either cylinder.
