91 Previa, how much for a head gasket job
Dbmethods 3 April 2005 02:24:03
	My car has near 127,000 miles now. How much is reasonable for a head gasket job? It burns 1 quart of motor oil every 2000 miles. It is smelly when closing down the garage door.

	Smelly could just be oil leaks and burning off hot engine -- use Gunk engine degreaser and take it to wand car wash or have it steam cleaned. Burning oil is usually from worn valves/valve stems or seals or worn rings. Head gasket usually causes overheating or coolant in oil or oil in coolant. Are you thinking a new head gasket will solve the stated problems? ethods" <dbmethods@nospam.optoline.net> wrote in message newsan.2005.04.02.22.24.03.535307@nospam.optoline.net...> My car has near 127,000 miles now.> How much is reasonable for a head gasket job?> It burns 1 quart of motor oil every 2000 miles.> It is smelly when closing down the garage door.

Are > you thinking a new head gasket will solve the stated problems? You are good. Actually, it could be caused by the receive valve gasket which I don't have any clue on this. My mechanic is asking $135 for this job. Does it sound reasonable?

	Until you clean it off good and see where the leak is - I wouldn't waste $ on it. It may just need a couple bolts tightened or even just a new drain bolt washer.

Are > you thinking a new head gasket will solve the stated problems? Yes, you are 100% correct. The problem is at receive valve gasket although I have no clue what it is. The mechanic asked about $135 for the job. Does it sound right? This car is 1991 but runs great, should I just go ahead to fix this.
