Along with the head gasket you often get warping of the head. Coolant will get mixed with the oil causing engine bearing and ring damage if the car was driven after the head gasket blew. If you continue to drive the car you will eventually ruin the engine.
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. Poor compression in any cylinder can be caused by a blown head gasket. That condition can also be caused by a burned valve or piston. Coolant in the crank case can be caused by a blown head gasket. Compression in the coolant can be caused by a blown head gasket. An engine with a blown head gasket usually loses performance and runs poorly or not at all.

No, a normal tune up cannot cause a blown head gasket. A blown head gasket normally is caused by an engine overheating or by a defect in the gasket or head. If it happened right after a tune-up that is just a coincidence.
Other than a leak, a blown head gasket. Very serious, so stop driving until this is repaired if you suspect a 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.
Overheating can cause this. Air bubbles escaping from the radiator is caused by a blown head gasket.
This can be caused by a cracked head or blown head gasket.
Because the head gasket is blown.
If not repaired at once you will get water in the oilpan. It can warp the engine head.
White smoke from the exhaust is a symptom of coolant in the combustion chamber. Normally this is caused by a blown head gasket or cracked head. Stop driving the car immediately and seek professional help, as severe engine damage will occur.White smoke from the exhaust is a symptom of coolant in the combustion chamber.

what are you asking here? PLease be more specific ...like - how do I know if my head gasket is blown, or what do I do about a blown head gasket ......
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.
