I blew my head gasket out of my stock d15b7
a **** load of white smoke is comming out from the back. and over heating

I need a temporaty fix, because people are looking into buying my car, and I cant' sell it to them looking like this.

I will fix it mind you, but it just needs too look good for now

 

only way to fix is a new headgasket.

tell him the headgasket blew recently, but you will replace it with a new OEM one installed professionally.

And you should do that as soon as possible, so others looking at your car will be able to drive it.

I guess you'll have to tell him it's not really driveable right now.

 

your car is worth considerably less now. id stop running it at all before you blow the engine. that white smoke is actually steam from water getting into your combustion chamber = very very bad.

don't try to screw people over...

 

First give me the buyers phone number & email & address

...so i can call him/her and tell them they're about to be dicked over

your sorry for trying to sell a broke down car.

You blew the headgasket so now you get to fix it.

^^^ I agree.

shame on you for trying to "temporarily fix" the headgasket so you can sell the car. People like you are why carfax was invented.

Fix the damn thing and you won't.

 

thats pretty gay you were gona try to dick people over...people like you give buying/selling cars independantly bad names...

 

you dont have time to change the headgasket before they come and look at it?? it takes 3 hours max..

 

he not gona fix it...

 

i bet i can change my rings out of the motor someone sold me faster than you can change that gasket, n00b

 

well if you didnt want to lose potential buyers you shouldnt have blown your headgasket,

just fix the damn thing,
**** if I had a buyer coming tomorrow to look at my car, I'd fix that **** tonight and it'd be good'n ready by the time they showed up.

 

You also might have ruined it anyway. The next thing to happen is a spun rod bearing. Go ahead and make plans to change your oil a couple of times to insure all the water is out.

That is if you are really going to fix it.

 

You said its overheating, so umm yeah, you probably warped the head, so the right thing to do would be to tell the buyer, if he decides not to buy it, then oh well, don't lie to the guy.

 

gawd...comes onto honda-tech to find ways to hide problems with his car and **** people over... sounds like it should be in ban territory.

 

ju8st fix it your self

buy just a new head gasket don't let it voer heat anymore or it might wrap the head
should take you like 2 hours

I believe he meant "warp" the head
but you should def fix it, don't be a deadbeat seller

 

thanks for all the great advise guys.

been here for a year, read all about how everybody flames people and ****, but it's jsut out of fun.

but I've never seen people call other members cooksucking liars before though.

I posted that msg because alot pf people are looking at the car, and I had appoinments with them, and I don't want them to go see a other cars and buy it cause mine isn't in drivable condition. car the car was in perfect , but as soon as I put it i the auto trader it went.

I fixed the problem. all is well
