i work at a dealership and my car has been going through ALOT of coolant lately(i have to fill it up after 1-2 hours of driving). i had one of the techs look at it and he found a cracked head gasket. he quoted me for about $1100 all together. $800 of that was for labor. my question is how hard would it be to do it myself (im fairly mechanically inclined and follow directions well)? if i cant do it myself how long would it be until the engine just dies on me? it already has 117,000 miles on it. im going to college and about to buy a new car so moneyy is very tight, and i really want to keep the X for the winter (getting a '03 Mach 1 and live in Michigan). any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
