| Re: Root Cause of Head gasket Failure and a Fix?
would it be safe to say, that for preventitive maintenance it would be a good idea to put a lower temp thermostat in the car? It seems that would greatly help this car, to never get that hot. is it coincidence that northstar run hotter then most all other cars, and they have the most head gasket failure's due to heat and the expanding / contracting of metals also due to heat.
you might loose a mpg if you got it to run at 185-190 instead of 210-220, but it seems well worth it. |
