Jeeeesh. I think I jinxed myself with this thread. I made an early exit from the Chin Motorsports event at Sebring this morning. I went three laps before I got the meatball flag. Went to the pits and found I was spewing coolant and motor
oil. Upon further inspection, I suspect blown head gasket. After I shut down the engine and opened the hood, steam was squirting out from the back of the engine, right at the head the best I can tell. The only reason I don't think freeze plug is because of the
oil. The odd thing is it never ran any different and temperatures were fine. No missed shifts, never hit the rev limiter; in fact, I don't think I ever had it over 5,500 RPM. Even the instructor said I hadn't done anything to cause a blown gasket. Coolant and
oil were fine before I hit the track but oil was down about 3/4 of a quart and the expansion tank was empty when I shut it off, so I'm guessing maybe a shaky build by Ford Racing? Engine has 1,059 miles on it.
