Head Gaskets and Valve Covers

The Hyundai H100 offers 130 PS and 26.0 KG per meter of torque. That converts to 57 pounds of torque and 128 horse power.

I just had mine replaced and it cost $1300 and took a week to fix.

it is most likely the oil cooler on the left side of the block you can get the parts from ford its a dirty job but fairly easy

missing, improper seal, cracks

no just if the compression is way off becausee there are no sensors fo that

yes...its a great product.

Changing a head gasket (or in your case, gaskets) is a long process. If you have to ask this question, then you probably do not have the tools and knowledge to complete the task. A service manual would be necessary for you to have the correct procedure and torque specifications.

There is no way to tell of far you CAN go. Usually, you will find out only when you reach the point that you have gone too far and further damaged the rest of the engine. How far SHOULD you go? The answer to that is "Where is the nearest shop?"

A head gasket is a gasket that sits between the engine block and cylinder head in an internal combustion engine. Its purpose is to seal the cylinders to ensure maximum compression and avoid leakage of coolant or engine oil into the cylinders; as such, it is the most critical sealing application in any engine, and, as part of the combustion chamber, it shares the same strength requirements as other combustion chamber components.

No. But they look similar and are of similar size and shape.

The valve cover comes of very easily with minimal tools and isn't very tight. The valve cover only weighs a pound or so. The valve cover gasket goes between it and the engine. The gasket looks like a rectangle with bumps and holes for bolts.

The head is the top part of the cylinders including where the valves go, where the spark plugs are. Removing the head takes much more powerful tools and the head can easily weigh 50 pounds on a small engine. Removing the head is much more work but can usually be done by someone who doesn't know what they are doing. The gasket is more complicated with large circles for the cylinders, and medium holes and small holes for bolts.

Check the oil for coolant ot the coolant for oil. It will be a yellowish colored crud. The car will probably overheat too.

You must replace the defective gasket. There is no other permanent fix.

The head of an engine is cooled from passages in the block. When you blow a head gasket the coolant gets by the passages and into the combustion chamber. Sometimes the coolant doesn't go into the chamber but goes into the oil pan causing the engine oil to turn a milky brown color (looks like a chocolate milkshake).

The coolant system has to be under pressure to operate properly. For each pound of pressure the system is able to go 3 degrees above boiling point. Lets use water and water only for this example. Water boils at 212 degrees, if you have a 15 pound radiator cap then you can raise the temperature of the water to 257 degrees. 15 pound cap X 3 degrees per pound equals 45 degrees and add that to the boiling point of 212 degrees. With coolant, the numbers are slightly higher. You can't have pressure on one hose and not the other. It is a closed loop system. So if you have engine with 180 degree thermostat, that is too close to boiling point. Adding the 15 pound cap moves the boiling point to 257 degrees that way you have room to move the temperature up. It is similar to a pressure cooker.
