Hello all,
I have a 2016 Wrangler. One owner (me). Had regular maintenance, oil changes. 80,000 miles. Check engine light came on last month, took it to a shop and they said it had a blown head gasket. No engine troubles, but the engine temp did raise a bit once after running it for ten minutes. Sent me a bill for $4k to fix it. Step dad suggested to flush out the engine and use the blue devil sealant. When we flushed out the engine there was some residue. Water was not mixed with oil though. Used the sealant. Been starting it and leaving it on throughout the week in intervals. Check engine light comes off and then the next day comes back on again. No increase on engine temp,. But there is water dripping out of the exhaust. Thinking I should just run it regularly and see what happens. See if it clears out the exhaust. Would love this forum's thoughts before I have to bite the bullet on the $4k.
