Originally posted by Ungas Are oil leaks visible inbetween your cylinder head and engine block? Did you just overheated the engine recently to a point that the engine stalled?
-wala naman leaks, obvious leaks that is. Nope, it did not stall either. pag malapit na red mark yung gauge I stop and let the engine cool down. Ewan ko lang dun sa lumang owner ng car.
Common culprits before cylinder head resurfacing:
- cylinder head gasket torn, leak due to excessive heat build up.
- if this is the case, the gasket will just be the one replace w/o refacing?
- cooling system clogged; radiator cleaned and checked for leakage or clogged up channels.
- cleaning of the radiator is easy but panu yung channels?
Insufficient coolant level. Check and Inspect for water pump failure.- coolant is always ok. water pump is ok coz wala naman daw water leak.
My bet is the clogged channel or the torn gasket... can you recommend a good autoshop?
