Car Talk › Re: Blown Head Gasket: Detailed Explanation by GAZZUZZ(m):
Not detailed enough, I will modify and explain better later


Major cause of a damaged head gasket is extreem temperatures, this will certainly cause head gasket damage, but it does more than that in modern day engines.
Most engines are made up of 2 basic components,
the head Cylinder and the block, in older engines the block is made of cast iron, while the head is made from aluminum. In newer engines the block and the head Cylinder are made from aluminum.

here's the Bummer, in sever cases of overheating when the engine looses compression, the head Cylinder gets warped (uneven surface) same with the block.

The Normal Nigerian mentality is to jump at replacing the head gasket with a graphite head gasket, remove the Thermostat and connect the fans directly. (Resulting if increase fuel consumption)

Now that could work for a few weeks, but after a while you are back to square one, which is a damaged head gasket. The reason is the mating surfaces are not overlapping evenly, and the heat from combustion will easily destroy the graphite head gasket at the uneven points.

proper repair procedures are required before replacing the head gasket of a vehicle, it could include replacing all valve seals and piston rings and even the block. Skimming the head is unavoidable if you want a lasting repair job. Also replacing radiator and installing coolant will help keep temperatures in check.

finally if you are driving and notice a spike in engine temperature, please park and leave car to cool of until you can touch the engine with your bare hands. Pouring water into an extremely hot engine will cause rapid uneven contraction of metals which could cause cracks in block or head.

Also if your vehicle has a bleeding procedure ensure you follow it to avoid air pockets which will certainly cause overheating if not eliminated.

finally when buying a car (Nigerian used or toks) ensure it comes with a metal head gasket and not graphite that way you are certain engine has not been tampered with. (Not in every case)

Honda city doing an average of 250-270km on every 5k fuel(full tank), good or bad? Wanna compare to yours
350-450km on Sunday it's better cause there's no traffic, on week days not so good.

So I met an Uber/Taxify driver in my estate today. I had just finished from Church, I was dressed down and going to a CyberCafe nearby; when this person beckoned on me from a 2000 Toyota Corolla. "Excuse me sir, please I'm going to Gowon Estate" ... "This is Gowon Estate", I replied. "Where exactly are you going to? What Road? What Close?" That was when he took up his phone and showed me the screen ... The Uber driver app was on, the pickup address was C Close, 31 Road.

"Oh, he is an Uber driver", I told myself. Suddenly, I felt ashamed on his behalf. He was looking nothing close to neat, he looked unkempt ... like he didn't sleep at home last night. The car was just there ... interior/exterior was just manageable. His windows were wound down, the AC was not running ... on a hot (102°F) Sunday afternoon. I told myself he doesn't even know how to use his Google maps ... I gave him directions to where he was going; and wished him luck. I couldn't even introduce myself as a fellow Uber/Taxify driver ... shame catch me ...
I know the feeling, I always give them 1 star grin
