Head gasket was created by Dazjimny1979
Hi all, my 2002 jimny with 150k milage has got an issue.  I'm thinking head gasket!? Started up okay but was miss firing.  It cleared after 15 seconds or so. Drove to work okay . Did some checking coolant nearly empty in the radiator.  Topped up but there was bubbles coming up through the coolant.  Smells like petrol.  The expansion bottle Smells of petrol too. It has been using a little coolant for a while. Anyone has this issue before?? No over heating at all . Regards

Have you done an exhuast gas test yet? This is the easiest way to see if your headgasket is leaking.

Yes I have, it confirmed it. also did a compression test. Cylinder 2 and 3 gave 160psi. Cylinder 1 and 4 have 205psi. Guessing the head gasket has blown between the Cylinders .
