How to Fix a Blown Head Gasket Affordably

Blown head gasket repair has traditionally been considered an expensive headache. Typically, it would involve removing the head of your engine, pulling off the blown gasket, cleaning the block and head surfaces, reinstalling the gasket and bolting the head back in place — taking care to get the head bolts tightened properly. This all adds up, big time, and it’s not anyone’s idea of a fun weekend.

With today’s complex engines, mechanically fixing a blown head gasket involves removing many auxiliary parts and accessories. In the case of older engines, it can mean replacing tired old parts that are worn or broken. As you can imagine, this quickly becomes a long and expensive affair. A head gasket itself is expensive to purchase, and when you add in the cost of additional parts and the hours involved for installation, a blown head gasket often means your car is headed for the scrapyard (depending on its market value, of course).

Our Bar’s Leaks head gasket repair products, however, couldn’t be easier to use:

    • Once you’ve detected a blown head gasket, it’s important to act quickly. At the first sign of a coolant leak — smell, puddling, low coolant level, engine roughness or low power — stop driving your car.
    • Check the condition of your coolant. Our products can be used directly in any type of coolant, but repairing a blown head gasket is a good occasion to drain and replace your coolant.
