RE: [DML] blown head gasket

["Marc A. Levy" <malevy@xxxx>]

I see others have sent you good ways to see if there is a blown gasket..

Just adding... If you do find that it is blown, consider WHY it was blown.. It was most likely overheated, and if so I'd assume (if I were buying the car) that the head is warped from the heat.. Even if it turns out to NOTbe the case, you cant disassemble and check it before you buy the car so assume the worst when making an offer.
