if it is just a blown exhaust manifold gasket it can ruin your valves, so replace it correctly and make sure everything is clean before putting on the new gasket

Any smoke ( blue ) coming out the exhaust ?
There's alot of ways you can test your vehicle for head gasket ,but the best way would be a cylinder leakage test,because once you see bubbles going into your coolant reservoir/over flow tank confirms this issue .This is a DIY job
condensation OR blown head gasket. Is it losing water in the radiator? If so, check the compression. from condensation from setting overnight,or a cracked head or blown head gasket if U are losing water from the radiator.I no water loss U probably have a very tight exhaust system that nas no leaks-& that's OK.
It can be a few things. Have you had a repair done to the engine or the exhaust system lately. If epoxy was used anywhere it can smell. Also raise the hood and look around for something a mouse has dragged into the engine compartment. Can also be a slight oil leak that is burning on the exhaust manifold. Lastly it can be coolant entering the combustion chamber and burning. This is usually caused by a blown head gasket. If you are loosing coolant with no apparent leak this may be the culprit. You need to have this looked into by a professional mechanic. A blown head gasket is serious and will cause severe engine damage.
Blown head gasket and/or cracked head.
Yes, the exhaust manifold on a 99 Chevy S10 2.2 will need to be be removed during the blown head gasket repair.
You could lose power if the exhaust manifold gasket has blown on a turbo equipped car because the turbo will not receive sufficient pressure. The turbo will produce less boost as it is powered directly by the exhaust gases.
Remove the intake and exhaust manifold, then remove the head.

A blown manifold exhaust gasket, is simple to explain. The Exhaust manifold ,are bolted to your heads. Which the exhaust pipes are connected to. There is a gasket that goes between the Header and head. What you have is that the gasket is leaking. To fix the problem you have to unbolt the manifold from the head and replace all the gaskets. Dependeing on make and model, you may have a one peice gasket or if you have individual gaskets. all you do is loosen the Mainifold and slip out the old ones and slip in the new ones. Depending on how old and rusty your Mainfold is , you might have to unbolt the Mainifold all the way off. and/of take of the exhaust pipe. But it should be simple. Hope that helps out some.
You must remove the exhaust manifold, intake manifold, and then remove the head. This is a major repair that should only be attempted by a pro.
A blown head gasket can allow coolant to see into the manifold, and out the exhaust. A broken piston ring can also cause this problem.
Loud exhaust noise from the front end is usually caused by one of several problems. The exhaust manifold gasket could be blown, the doughnut gasket could be bad, or there could be a crack in the exhaust itself.
The intake manifold and exhaust manifold must be removed. Then the head must be removed and the gasket replaced. The head must be checked for cracks and to see if it is warped. Then it is all put back together.
more than likely not...you will be dumping alot of water to in the oil....it could be a exhaust manifold gasket
Remove intake manifold, exhaust manifold, valve train, and heads. This is a major repair that should only be attempted by a professional.
