    i think you'd be able to pick that up by havinga compression test done [img]smile.gif[/img]

      Check for leaks/Smoke, a compression test SHOULD tell you, but isn't 100%.

      I've got a treo 300 ;)

        I take it that any shop can do a compression test? btw, I have a powertrain warranty so if it is the head gasket, this repair will be for free!! I have not been able to find any leaks except once, under the driver's part of the radiator. so I got the radiator tested and it's fine. but i've seen dripping once below the radiator where the air dam and metal meet. i'm having to add coolant every couple days, would a head gasket leak that fast? nachius, u like the phone? this one is unbelievable!
