Howdy all!!

right I know this is a hard question to answer but I'm going to post it up anyway, I have a 95 Toyota 4runner diesel (denco turbo kit) 190,000 excellent condition and I love the car..

driving home from work one day heater hose pop'd (didn't know this happened until later) temperature gauge remained normal (also have second temp gauge with audio alarm) neither of them showed anything abnormal but that's another story.

the car overheated and I got it towed home.. after changing all the fluids oil filter coolant etc..... the car starts and runs/sounds fine.

But! with radiator cap removed and engine running I get bubbles in the radiator (exhaust gas?) the coolant and engine oil is clean no milk etc

do you think its most likely just the gasket that needs changing? again I know you cant be 100% sure until you rip the head off anyway, none the less what do you think?

and what about some rough costs if it is jus the gasket and if it is the gasket and head?

sorry about the long winded post!

much love

Chich
