If the head(s) were checked and had no cracks and the coolant never mixed with the motor oil it could last for many miles depending on how many miles allready on the engine.
No. You can have the head gasket replaced. This is unless you kept driving the car with a blown head gasket and have totally destroyed the engine.
Replace the head gasket for sure. That is assuming you did not continue to drive the vehicle until you destroyed the engine internally.
Sure it will start with a blown head gasket. But, if you continue to run this engine with a blown head gasket you will destroy the engine.
how do i replace a blown head gasket on a 98 Toyota corolla
If you remove the head then of course you replace the head gasket.Where can you get sodium silicate to fix a blown head gasket?Know that adding sodium silicate to an engine is only a temporary fix for a blown head gasket and will not permantly fix the problem. The only permanent fix is to replace the head gasket. I would never add any head gasket fix material to any engine.
Replace it.
No it will not. The only thing that will fix a blown head gasket is to replace the gasket.
It is not possible to repair the actual head gasket. Repair of a blown head gasket is to replace the gasket.
With a blown head gasket the engine will still run, poorly with issues, but run. A blown engine will not continue to run from that moment on.
Remove the head, Grind it flat and replace it using a new gasket.
Sure you CAN, but if you do continue to run an engine with a blown head gasket you will destroy the engine. Do not run any engine with a blown head gasket or you will be buying a new engine.
remove head and replace gasket :)
