The typical head gasket leak is at the right rear corner (passenger side) of the head.

1993 - 1995 M104 motors also have bad engine wiring harnesses. Try the search function to read up on it. You might check your to see if yours is original or not.

Also check the part number of your OVP (Over Voltage Protection relay). It sits behind the battery. Do a search for OVP for the old and new part numbers. They are cheap, so change yours if you have the old part.
