Right my headgasket has went. So today i decided to get it sorted. Took the engine to bits and got the head off, Headgasket didnt look broke etc and was covered in water and oil. also the 2 of the pistons had a mixture of oil and water in them, The car drove perfect and never overheated when i found out i had the problem. Does this mean ive got a porous head or is it maybe just the headgasket? If you need more info i will try n help



Cheers Stuart

You sure the oil and water isn't from when the head was taken off?
