Every minute you drive a vehicle with a blown head gasket there is just that more severe internal engine damage. Drive it long enough and you will be buying a new engine or at the very least having this one completely rebuilt.

How do you you reduce engine blow by on a high performance engine?

Replace the engine or have it rebuilt. Once an engine is worn to the point that it has excessive blow by, those are the only real solutions. You could try using a heavier engine oil, but the effect that will have is negligible.

We had transmission rebuilt in a 1997 4wdTahoe transmission place says something could be wrong with the transfer case Should that have been included in the transmission rebuild?

The transfer case....or '4 wheel drive'(front wheels)....is a completely different beast. The transfer case can be rebuilt for about $1000. Just had my transfer case rebuilt for just under $1k.


You just put a used engine into your 1996 geo metro and for some reason it is using way to much gas and it is blowing out some blue smoke from the tailpipe what do you think this could be from?

I'm really sorry to be the one to tell you this, but the blue smoke is from the engine burning oil. This almost certainly is from bad piston rings. The engine needs to be replaced or rebuilt, because this problem will get steadily worse until the engine dies completely. You should have had the engine checked over before you got it.
