check your oil on the dipstick. if you have a cracked head or blown head gaskets the oil on your dipstick might have bubbles on it from water getting into your oil. another sign is white smoke coming from your tailpipe meaning you are burning water. I don't think you can over heat your oil, if your oil got too hot it would burn and you would smell it.
How do you Know if the head gasket is blown on a 1998 buick park ave?
These engines do not blow head gaskets. You need to replace the black plastic intake or plenum. They will leak coolant into the combustion chamber. Some roge mechanics will tell you it's head gaskets to get you to pay more money. Remove upper intake, remove spark plugs to get coolant out and replace and fill with coolant.

Theres a chirping air sound coming from the 5 cylinder of 2003 Ford Ranger V6 3.0 engine. It runs rough so is it dead cylinder or valve?
Its probably a blown head gasket. Ford rangers are natorious for blowing head gaskets. Check to see if there is oil in your water if you even have any water left. But if there is a blown head gasket in that spot it would allow water to get into the cylinder and of course make it not run correctly because as we all know WATER DOESN'T BURN. And if your trcuk blows water or alot of steam out the exaust that would be a result of a blown head gasket. If that isn't the case than it could be some stupid problem like the spark plug isn't tightened all the way or the valves cover is leaking because it's not tighted all the way either. I hope this helps GOOD LUCK! Its probably a blown head gasket. Ford rangers are natorious for blowing head gaskets. Check to see if there is oil in your water if you even have any water left.
