Hi all. i need your help and a possible diagnosis

When i turn the engine over to start a get a lot of pressure that pumps water out of the header tank.

could this be a possible head gasket failure?

Help would be much appriciated.

thanks
rob

 

My mate had that problem on his Mk1 Mondeo and that was the head gasket. All the water went into the sump and down into the exhaust.

Head gasket set isn't that much to buy i don't think. It's if you take it to a garage to get it fitted is when you pay big bucks

 

Havin trouble rob? I'd say head gasket mate gone between a cylinder and a water jacket as thats what mines just done!!! feckin zetecs

 

Agreed fooking zetecs lol

well cheers lads
