94 crimson SC
Registered User
Ive got a stock 94 SC 5-speed with 110,000 miles. I have had the car for 5 years and within the last couple years have noticed that between oil changes, the coolant reservoir loses about half its coolant. Also when I floor the car at night I would see white smoke coming out of the tailpipes. I think I only noticed it at night because of the headlights behing me shining into it. Yesterday I changed the oil and while the oil seemed fine, the coolant was low and when I took the cap off to refill the oil, the inside of the cap had tan colored gew on it, which looked like old coolant.
Question 1- Have I caught a leaking head gasket in its early stages?
Question 2- If so, does Ford sell a kit for doing this job since I know its a chronic problem with these engines and how much is it?
Question 3- How long does it take to complete the job on an SC?
Question 4- How much does the repair cost at the dealer?
Sorry about all the questions, but your answers are greatly appreciated!!! Thanks!!!
