if my heads are warped and gasket needs replacing what longterm damages and repairs should i expect
this is a non interference engine - lucky...
check your timing
You have to remove the engine first from the car. Place it on an engine stand and work your way on removing the cranksaft. No way to remove it while the engine is in the car.
Drain about 1 gallon of coolant from the radiator Remove thermostat housing Clean both surfaces Replace gasket Re-install housing Re-fill coolant slowly to prevent an airlock Start engine and look for leaks Run engine to normal operating temperature with heater on Re-check coolant level
Changing the heater hose hidden between the engine and the firewall under the plenum on a 96 isuzu rodeo. Best option since there is limited access is to remove the plenum. Take all the bolts out of plenum. Remove wire harness to free plenum up enough to remove. Detach from air intake. Then you'll be able to get at that hose. When putting it back on you'll need a new plenum gasket. Hose cost around $10 and gasket is like $6. Garage will probably charge you $300+
From what I understand, you have to diconnect the exhaust system on the side that the starter motor is located on. To reassemble you have to replace the exhaust gasket with a new one. If you are replacing the starter, there is a GM starter that is a direct replacement for the Isuzu starter and costs quite a bit less.
could be a gasket that has finally gaveway and the smell of oil is the oil burning on the engine.
your car may be leaking coolant into the engine, i.e your head gasket may be bad
you have a blown head gasket. the compression from the engine is building up in the cooling system. this can only be caused by a blown head gasket. that is the reason for the overheating as well.
