Well, bound to happen sooner or later - my head gaskets blew yesterday. I was on the highway going to work when I herd a pop in the engine and by the time I got to the job - about another 3/4 mile - I was laying out quite the smoke screen
For those who have been through this, my question is this:
Being that the coolant blew through the engine and out the exhaust and I also believe there's coolant in the oil, is my engine toast? I didn't hear any banging or clanking when I parked the car. Filled the radiator and overflow tank and drove 7 miles home very slowly. Didn't smoke too much until I was about a 1/2 mile away. My SC is a '92 with 78K original miles.
I'm already going through withdrawal symptoms.
Thanks for any help.
