merry Christmas...
 
I lost my coolant driving to work... Smelled it first... Pulled over... Oil all over the exhaust manifold... Headgasket time... Maybe head time... 7000 miles poof.

Now it is me not envying your position. Let me know which brand gasket you use and what else you replace. I'm really sorry about that though. :(

Ooh that stinks. Where did the coolant go?

vstech 12-23-2013 09:38 AM

Not sure... I'm sitting in the rain waiting for a tow truck...

If you need one here is a head fairly close to you Mercedes Benz OM602, 5 cylinder engine | Blacksburg | eBay Classifieds (Kijiji) | 23869683

But I think you already have a spare that you just pulled last week.

vstech 12-23-2013 10:18 AM

yeah, that's close! thanks!
it's claimed to be fully rebuilt, so I may buy it either way...
I'll go take a look at it tonight.

vstech 12-23-2013 10:19 AM

I got pics of the oil everywhere... I should have taken a pic of the smoke as I was cranking it...

grrr.

The one in Blacksburg? Is it gone because I posted it here instead of PM'ing you about it? :cool:

vstech 12-23-2013 12:22 PM

yup...
gone.
I hope my head is not cracked...

Oh man, this last page is a real bummer. Wish you the best of luck.

I think you'd know if it was. I hear that really hurts.
