After deciding that my head gasket was blown (see thread) http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=270522
I removed the head to find no visible damage to the gasket. Is it posible that it still failed and I just can't see the place where it failed? The motor never overheated, so I can't imagine that the head was warped and even then, shouldn't I see a burnt area where the cylinder was leaking?
It is obvious that the cylinder was burning coolant as evident by the cleaned piston top....
