When heat is coming from the dip stick is that a sign of a blown head gasket?

No, the dip stick will normally be hot. Symptoms of a blow head gasket are loss of coolant with no apparent leak, oil level overfull, white smoke from the exhaust that has a sweet smell, a white foamy substance on the underside of the oil fill cap, and air bubbles escaping from the radiator fill hole with cap off, engine running. If you suspect you have a blown head gasket STOPdriving this vehicle now or you will do serious damage to the engine.

How do you tell if you have a blown head gasket on a 1999 Plymouth Breeze?
A blown head gasket will ultimately leave water deposits on your oil dip stick. If your oil is clean on the stick but you are having oil leak problems that seem to be coming from the head, check the cam sensor. This is often mis-diagnosed as a blown head gasket and is simply not the case. The cam sensor is located on the right side of the engine just below the head. They seem to have a history of cracking with these engines as was the case with mine.
