White Smoke and water leaking from exhaust, radiator fluid gone, smells of oil in the radiator, signs of water in the valve cover, no oil in the engine, runs hot. Could this be a blown head gasket? Engine never lost power. Any help here would be appreciated, Thank You.

Hello –

Yes my friend….sorry….based off of what you are saying you have a blown head gasket.

Make sure you get the heads surfaced, new valve seals etc….most head gasket kits come with all the goodies the machines needs.

Make sure all the valves are checked and replaced if necessary….change the oil and filter and do a good flush of the coolant system.
