Head Gasekt!

Hey guys I'm losing coolant but I don't a see or have any coolant under my car nor did I see a trail of leaking coolant. Does this mean I gasket is blown becuase my car smoke under 5k and above acceleration.


thanks again,

Some smoke when the exhaust is cold is normal. But if everything is warm, then it's not normal. White smoke is antifreeze burning, blue smoke is oil.

If your smoke is white, then yes, it's most likely a head gasket, and since you see no visible puddles/leaks, those are 2 strong signs of a bad head gasket.

Do a leak down test and that will tell you if you have a bad head gasket.

btw a leak down test is when you piss in the blower motor. fyi

you can also check for HC in the radiator... if there's any HC in the coolant then the head gasket is garbage... however you need access to an emissions tester.

:evillol:

hey thats weird cause i got the EXACT same problem! i put coolant in, and it just disappears... no leaks or anything. and my engine stays warm for A WHILE after i turn it off. does anyone know whats wrong here?! my neighbor says its my head gasket too, but what do you think???

I'd be willing to bet your neighbor is right. It has to go somewhere, and if it's not leaking, it's burning.
