Tried everything under the sun and nothing worked. Took it to the shop and they say head gasket, but they won't replace the gasket with 213k miles on the engine. I think the engine still has plenty of life left in it so I'm going to do it myself and replace the timing belt while I'm at it. So I'll ask again, any tips and tricks to doing the head gasket myself? Anything I should be looking for while I'm in there? Is it imperative to have the head machined while it's out? I wouldn't mind doing a full rebuild but I don't have time since I'll be moving in about a month and I only have one day off a week.
