What causes an engine to blow a head gasket between cylinders?
Today while driving along my car blew a head gasket between the number one and number two cylinders. It doesnt overheat any to my knowledge (although it just has the idiot light and not a gauge). Engine is a 2.3L ford SOHC. The head was rebuilt in late 2006 and so obviously the head gasket was replaced then. The head was decked but the block was not. So what all could have caused this gasket to blow out right there?
The head gasket blew in the area with the least amount of clamping force - improper torque, reused head bolts, low area on head or block, defective gasket, hot spot, etc...

What To Do When Your Check Engine Light Comes On
When you are about to embark on a long road trip (or even worse, when you are in the middle of it), having the check engine light come on can be a disastrous thing. In fact, having the check engine light come on in general usually leads to some pretty bad feelings. Fortunately, just because the check engine light is on does not always mean that you need to spend a ton of money on repairs. Sometimes, having the check engine light come on is not a big deal at all.
If you are lucky, your check engine light is just on because your gas cap is not on tight enough. This frequently happens, because sometimes the internal computer in your car cannot differentiate one problem from another and alert you to the differences. Instead of having dozens of lights to let you know when every little thing goes on, many times your car alerts you to minimal problems by turning the check engine light on. If you suspect this is the case, pull over and tighten your gas cap. It may take a few trips for the check engine light to reset itself, but it is definitely worth a try.
If you have tried that, but it did not seem to have an effect on your check engine light, look around your dashboard to see if there are any other warning lights on. Check your gauges for an indication of an overheating issue or a low oil pressure problem. If you find that one of the gauges is off, pull over as soon as it is safe to, as running your car with low oil or when it is overheating can lead to much bigger problems down the road.
If you have an OnStar subscription, give them a call. If you have a 1997 General Motors vehicle or later, the people at OnStar can tell you whether or not the check engine light is alerting you to a serious problem with your vehicle. This is because the operators at OnStar can read your vehicles trouble codes remotely, saving you from an unnecessary trip to the mechanic (or, as the case may be, speeding you along to the mechanic sooner than you would have gone on your own). Of course, if you do not have OnStar, you can always take your car to a mechanic who will read the trouble codes for you.

Remote Control Hobbies Have Been Popular for a Long Time!
Remote control hobbies have been popular for a long time. Even if you haven't enjoyed playing with your own RC car, helicopter, or boat, remote control vehicles are still fun to watch others play with! In 2008, hobby shops all over the world witnessed a huge surge of interest and excitement about remote control hobbies in general, but particular interest in remote control boats.
It doesn't seem to matter what age you are, either. It's pretty common now to see remote control boats being maneuvered in local streams and creeks adjacent to both urban and suburban parks alike. Just in time for Christmas, those prices are coming down, too.
What's more fun when relaxing by the pool or at the park than watching someone play with an RC boat? Remote control boats and accessories are right around 50% off right now in most hobby shops and online stores. That said, why not get your own?
Educational hobbies that involve remote control toys are a fantastic way to show your young enthusiast how to care for electronic devices. Planning your purchase around sales will keep the sting out of your wallet, too!
Helicopters, rockets, and planes are usually included on r/c aircraft carrier ships. How much fun is that? Right now, instead of the nearly $150.00 and up you could spend on one, they're available for under $79.00. That's a savings of 47%! Pretty good for a remote control boat.
Remote control boats can be small enough to fit into the palm of your hand, or large enough to need its own body of water! Choose from:
* Bass fishing boats
* Sailboats
* Offshore boats
* Pirate ships, with cannons!
* Yachts
* Police boats
* Even waverunners!
It's important to note that some of these boats can be up to 3ft long and $400.00, but like anything else, you can spend as much as you want to on them! Beginners should go for the bargain, and plan ahead for that kind of spending. It can get expensive.
Maybe I'll see you down by the creek at our local park, playing with my new RC Jet Ski I just got for almost 50% off.
Who am I kidding? That will be my son. I'll be next to him, watching! You've got to be quick around here with your remote control hobbies. They're kind of hard to keep secret.
