Blown head Gasket, Ford Mondeo MD diesel.

Unread post by GUEST » Tue Mar 12, 2024 1:00 am

Hi.
I have a blown head gasket oil was milky when this happened, checked car two months later to discover both oil and coolant are totally gone from vehicle, is this usual to happen from a blown head gasket to have the fluids disappear? was thinking about plugging it up with Blue Devil Gasket Sealer so I can drive the vehicle a long distance to get properly fixed.

Thank you for your time

yes, from what you describe, that's unusual that there is no oil or coolant found in your vehicle. It's possible that the coolant would continue to leak out of the cooling system and not be visible in the radiator but the oil level should not be below the range on the dipstick. Is there a big puddle under the engine? If you overheated the engine so much that you damaged the seals and oil leaked out there, there should still be oil in the pan below where the seal is. check your drain plug on the oil pan. It's possible that your dipstick may not reach the oil level below where the leaking seal is. Timing cover gasket, front or rear main seal...

Has the vehicle been sitting for the two months or has it been driven for the two months?
