Title: Two Questions lol
Post by: laernu on July 14, 2009, 04:09:19 PM
1) My car the other day overheated completely and shut off on RT18.. i figured it got soo damn hot because my belt which controls my Alternator, Powersteering and Fan Clutch was gone and their for nothing was helpin it cool down i guess? And also my radiator got so hot that it cracked and leaks... My question is after all this happening i had to push start my car so i can put it somewhere for it to be safe and as im driving my friends see's white smoke come out of my exhaust, does that mean i have a Blown Head Gasket?

2) If it is a blown head gasket is it hard to change at all cause as i see it, it looks really smiple ?

Thanks,
