Hey everyone,
Recently I had one of my cars diagnosed with a blown headgasket. (1997 Plymouth Breeze)
The price quoted for repair was higher then the car is really worth and it's not my daily driver so it's not really an important vehicle, just handy at times.
So I bought some Bars Head Gasket repair to try. If it worked, great, if not, eh no biggie.
Well, shortly after application the car smoothed out some (still runs rough) and stopped losing oil and coolant completely. The car is still overheating, and running somewhat rough, but the situation is improved.
My question is, did the stuff work? Is it possible that the current symptoms are from contaminated oil and coolant, and not the headgasket, or should I just give up the ghost? I'm willing to flush the coolant and change the oil if it's possible that is the issue (even if it's slightly possible) but if not I'm just gonna put her in the front yard to sell.
Thanks for any imput!
