Head Gasket Replacement
Nobody wants to hear the words "blown head gasket." A blown gasket can result in many problems, including the sudden loss of firing compression and coolant and engine oil leaking into its cylinders.
Get your head gasket replaced by a professional mechanic before it does more damage to your vehicle.
What is a head gasket?
The head gasket forms a seal around the engine cylinders. This seal ensures maximum compression within the engine and prevents oil and coolant from leaking into your engine's combustion chamber.
While driving with a damaged head gasket is possible, it is not advisable. When your head gasket fails, combustion gases can get out, resulting in a slow and sluggish engine and a significant loss of power. Your engine will also be prone to overheating when the coolant leaks out.

Four signs that your Head Gasket needs a replacement
1. An overheating engine.
2. Your exhaust emits white smoke.
3. Your engine is misfiring or running poorly.
4. Milky coloured oil due to coolant leak and contamination.
If you've already encountered any of these signs, changing your head gasket is your next step.
How to replace head gaskets?
The procedure is pretty straightforward. Your mechanic will first drain the oil and coolant from your engine. He will then remove all parts connected to the head gasket and replace it by applying sealant. A test drive of your vehicle will follow.
