Description of the problem | The head gasket blew out in my car as i was driving in town. The oil light came on all of a sudden and i pulled over thinking that i was just low in oil. So i added three quarts and proceeded to drive. The next day it was already low again. This is when i decided that something was wrong. This is a defect in the head gasket and in no way my fault. |
