Car started to idle like **** and a check engine light came on. I reset it and it came on again...now I pulled my catch can and it was the white creamy oil head gasket blown yeah? Checked my oil and it was fine and my radiator fluid is perfectly green? Any ideas? I was just tuned by map and now I'm I'm Fort Collins? Anyone know where I could take it or do you think it's okay still?

 

What was the code?

 

I don't have a way to pull it so I did the negative battery trick and when it came on after an hour of driving I knew something wasn't okay

 

We and you need the code.

 

I'm trying. I messed with the bliss screw and drove around for about 10 miles making turns and I couldn't get the code to come back. My catch can line popped off somewhere between Minnesota and Fort Collins and I washed it and didn't notice until after maybe water got into the lines...if the
Code comes
Back I will go get it pulled at autozone and let you guys know

 

check engine light came on and i got my codes pulled at auto zone. i sold my cable thinking i was going with an AEM so i pulled a p0300 and a p0400 which im stumped on that one because my EGR was deleted and I had zero issues back in minnesota....maybe the elevation and 91 oct gas is causing these issues. Please let me know

 

If you're not losing ANY amount of coolant, your dipstick looks fine, and your radiator looks fine, then its hard to blame the gasket. Have you overheated at all? A head gasket won't just let go unless there's a serious underlying problem.

Did you install ARP studs using the 1x1 method? The head gasket would be the last thing on my mind, if not. This coming from someone who did the opposite: checking everything BEFORE changing the head gasket and solving my problems Lol

 

Best way to test for a Head Gasket is a Combustion Leak Tester.

 

Any reputable shop will be able to test the coolant for hydrocarbons... And any performance shop should be able to do a leak down test... Either will give you an idea of the head gaskets health... If you drain the oil into a clean container you can check it for white oil paste or for unmixed coolant... Also blown head gaskets tend to blow white smoke in the exhaust, but not always, the smoke will smell sweet. Help that helps
