Review on 🏭 FEL-PRO HS 9071 PT-3 Head Gasket Set: Premium Quality for Superior Performance by Robert Gomatham

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I have a blown head gasket on a 2008 Equinox.

I had a blown head gasket on a 2008 Equinox that had none of the classic symptoms. Chemistry block test passed, clean oil, clean liquid, no white smoke, nothing at all. Bubbles form in the coolant and the system stalls, causing overheating. And yet it would have passed the chemical block test. Do not know how. It turned out to have 2 leaks from the cylinder to the water jacket and blew bubbles into the cooling system. This kit had everything I needed to repair it myself. A NOTICE. There are extra screws for CA compatible vehicles. You need to use one that doesn't have a threaded stud and I called Fel-Pro to find out where to fit it. They said everywhere that it doesn't bother anything about it, so I put it on the front left when inspecting the engine.

Pros
  • Handy Stuff
Cons
  • Zero
