1999 2.0 Head Gasket??????? - mikeweathers

2-litre Mondeo petrol

Car overheating when stationary in traffic on motorway
Thought changing thermostat would be a good idea

On refilling, constant stream of bubbles through header tank

Is this the dreaded "curse of the Mondeo" ie hg gone?

If I can find the compression tester in the shed I might have a go with that

I was told 170 was the figure to aim for: can anyone confirm?

Thanks mw

Been there, had that done......!

Sounds very much like HG. Might be worth trying K-Seal for a few quid off eBay.

Could last a few weeks, could last for ever.
