yep head gasket... no point doing any tests... you described all the symptoms already
i can do a compression check for you (not a leakdown test) and prove it.
excluding a full rebuild, labour of changing the head gasket (pulling the head off) and milling the head flat again is worth far more than a 2nd hand motor and half the value of the car... sell it... unless glen wants to pull it apart at mates rates
good game lol
ahh k...
man, im sellin things and i need a get around car...

could be true in his case as well but thats more of a worse case scenario than head gasket change in terms of rebuild cost...Quote:
