A blown head gasket is a serious problem but Tracy’s Automotive can help you with that.

When you pulled into the driveway last night after an evening of ice skating, you noticed that your car was running hot. Rather than check the radiator while it was hot and risk being scalded by a flow of hot water, you decided to let your car cool down over night. This morning, you checked your radiator and found it had the correct amount of coolant in it. Now you’re not sure what’s the matter.

Well, if could be something as simple as a malfunctioning switch. Or, it could be something as bad as a blown head gasket, the seal between the engine block and cylinder heads. Overheating is one symptom of a blown head gasket. Other symptoms, according to thedrive.com: oil or coolant leaking, engine misfiring, water vapor or white smoke coming from the exhaust, bubbling inside radiator, and fouled or wet spark plugs.

“When a head gasket starts to go bad, it can cause all sorts of other problems with the engine and exhaust systems,” thedrive.com says. “Any number of things can cause the head gasket to fail, from age to an overheated engine, to even a poorly installed gasket itself! No matter the cause, the problem requires immediate attention—ATTENTION, THIS IS NOT A DRILL.”
