Signs of Needing Jeep Head Gasket Replacement Service

A few signs that will alert you to the need to get your clutch serviced:

• The engine gets too hot and the cylinder head warps. The warping will cause the cylinder head to press down on different parts of the gasket and damage it. The warping will also cause small openings to appear in the seam that will allow oil and coolant to seep out of the crack.
• The other condition is when the timing of the combustion becomes distorted and the pre-ignition and detonation of the cylinders can damage the gasket as well as other major parts of your engine.

You can tell when a head gasket is failing when you see oil and coolant puddled under your Jeep, white smoke emits from the tailpipe, your engine overheats a lot, air bubbles appear in the coolant in the reservoir, the oil in the engine turns a milky white color, and your spark plugs start to get plugged up. If any of these things happens, call us right away.

Why Should I Schedule a Jeep Head Gasket Replacement Service?

Working on the head gasket takes training, experience, and patience. The cylinder head has to be taken off of the engine block which will expose the internal combustion parts of the engine. You have to be very careful to keep things clean and orderly to do the replacement job correctly. You also need to service the Jeep periodically to make sure other parts like the thermostat are working well to allow the coolant to lower the temperature of the engine so it does not overheat.
