Ominous sign?

May 03, 2004 1 Replies

While replacing the coil housing today on my daughter's '92 Grand Am happened to notice a small amount of anti-freeze leaking from around one of the head bolts. At least that's where it appears to be coming from. This is the Quad Four that I personally rebuilt about three years ago.



Can I assume that the head gasket is on the way out or could there be a crack somewhere? What do you think?

The Quad that was famous for the cracked heads was the Single Overhead Cam version. Is the leak coming right up from the head bolt, or around it? If around it, you might want to clean the area off and see if you can spot a crack.
