Possible head gasket on 1.8 16v

Recommended Posts

Hi guys, Ive had my 1990 1.8 16v corrado for a month and i believe the head gasket has gone due to the fact clouds of smoke pouring out the exhaust along with water and running ropey with bad misfire plus poping loud bangs after 10 minutes of the car running.

Previous experience tells me its the head gasket but im after a second opinon. Can some1 help me clear this up? thanks

Are there any of the obvious indications of water in oil, or oil in water? Thats the most definitive test you can do at home without a compression or sniff test.
