You have either a blown head gasket or a cracked head
A cracked/warped head, Blown head gasket, cracked cylinder wall, or cracked/warped intake manifold.
A blown gasket can be repaired by replacing the gasket...if you are talking about the head gasket, then you have to remove the cylinder head from the engine block and replace the gasket that is inbetween them. Cracked heads generally have to be replaced because they are made of aluminum which cannot be repaired permanently once it is cracked.
blown head gasket or cracked block blown head gasket or cracked block
Antifreeze in your oil is symptomatic of a blown head gasket. If your head gasket is blown you may have warped your head ( and possibly cracked it ). The fix for this is to remove the head and take it to a machine shop and to replace it along with a new head gasket.
Blown head gasket or cracked head.
cracked head or blown head gasket
you have a warped/or cracked head,or blown head gasket
There's only one way to repair a blown head gasket and that is to replace the gasket. You must also check to make sure that the head is not cracked or warped If it is the head will either have to be replaced or machined depending on the severity of the damage.
A cracked block means that the engine itself is cracked. A blown head-gasket means that the gasket between the engine and the head has blown. Either can be caused by overheating the engine. When an engine overheats the head can warp causing the head-gasket to give out. In some engines the heat cracks the block. If the block is cracked, it's over. If the head-gasket is blown you can always machine the head surface and put it all back together.
Replace it , meaning the cracked head or the gasket . Neither can be repaired . The head can be repaired if its only warped from overheating by having it surfaced . It is best on the 8 valve or the 16 valve engines to replace with new parts.
