the bottom one did feel cooler... but idk, the fluid keeps on stayin low but there r no leaks

could just be condensation. if you fill up your gas tank then it settles while your car sits all day, if it only gets driven a mile. ive seen alot of oil caps with white glue stuff in them thats just condensation accumulating

its already gone the white stuff

What have you done that makes you believe the head gasket is not blown? Did you drain the oil? You've got to wonder how the oil got pasty in the first place, right? I hope I'm wrong, but it seems highly likely that the head gasket is blown.

i drained the oil... and i dont think its blown cause if it was there should be a lot of white smoke comin out the exhaust and water as well, like b4, i had the problem one other time and there was smoke, water everywhere... cause of that, i lost a taurus lol....

Doesn't always happen that way. Sometimes it does, sometimes the exhaust gasses blow the coolant back through the cooling system and blows out through the overflow, sometimes coolant mixes with the oil. It all depends on where the gasket failed.

hmmm... thats crazy... but ive looked for every possible way that yal have listed and.. well... nothin.. the worst one was the white stuff... and its gone

Unfortunately, with time, it will likely return.

let it.... i mean i cant complain.... the motor has 219000 miles... its done its time... and it will give me a chance to rebuild it better for the turbo

cooler or cold? Cooler but still hot, no problem. Very cool means the t-stat is not opening and you need to replace it. You may be losing coolant if the t-stat is not opened and the car is forced to put the extra pressure out your reservoir. Is the reservoir full?

99civichx

yes... its full... and i guess cooler?.?.

EFPhilly
