Still makes good power, too.  |
What leads you to believe your head gasket is shot then if nothing is burning or mixing? I suppose if you can watch the coolant in the radiator or fill point and if it bubbles, that could be another sign. Maybe a compression test to see if compression from one cylinder is leaking into another cylinder? Mine was pretty obvious when I saw a steady pressurized stream shooting out between my head and my block, so no troubleshooting there.
