[QUOTE="My96z, post: 11707821, member: 88359"] Did it overheat? My signs of a blown headgasket were overheating. The combustion gasses were leaking into the coolant passages. To confirm the headgasket, I tried a block tester kit but that didnt work too good because the coolant resivoir is so far removed from the leak. I wasnt getting any bubbles from the resivoir either. I found mine by doing the coolant bleeding procedure on the cross over pipe. Once the motor heated up, I would get small bubbles during the bleeding process. I would also get lots of air (combustion gas)come out whenever I would run the car and barely crack the plug. If the cooling system was good, it would only be water coming out. Meanwhile the car would not smoke. After awhile, when I took it in to get fixed the car slowly started to smoke more and more. [/QUOTE]
