Felpro Head Gasket Disintegration


Recommended Posts

Helped a friend do a head gasket on his '90 Loyale and was surprised when after 3 weeks he got the milkshake back. At the time, I was a little bothered by the antifreeze he used and it appears that his use of the red - RV antifreeze for water tanks was the cause of the brand new Felpro head gasket disintegrating; we also took the 2nd head off and that head gasket was also mush.

 

Lot of wasted time and cost because of someone going cheap on antifreeze.

Hmm. I use the cheapest anti-freeze I can buy. But, it's the Green stuff at Autozone. I'll be sure and avoid any Red anti-freeze. Wait a minute. That red stuff for RV water systems isn't coolant. :eek:
