Default Headgasket...When to replace? Before it leaks?

Was wondering what the time schedule for replacing the headgasket is?

Is there one? 200k? 100k? My car is approaching 250k!

it wasn't listed on my maintenance chart, or in the scheduled maintenance in the helms (at least i didnt see it) but at that mileage, i would do it regardless just as a peace of mind.

I had mine go up to 294K before experiencing a leak in the HG.

Check the compression of your motor....It'll help determine the condition.
