Just did a combustion leak test and it just barely changed color. It seems I have a very small exhaust gas leak into the coolant.
For context it only overheats at 30 mph+ unless I rev the engine a lot in the driveway. I can generally drive it around town as long as I go slow.
The car is not worth enough to justify a head gasket replacement, IMO, but I guess I could get a quote on the job. It's not something I think I want to tackle myself.
Anyone think the Blue Devil head gasket sealer is worth a shot? It's my secondary car, I just use it to go to the hardware store or take the dogs to the vet, so it doesn't have to be able to do anything stenuous.
