Check you don’t need any special tools etc

Re: Car starts, then stops after a few minutes
Now you are losing water, you've all the symptoms I had when I cooked M939FDF. Rough running but running! Water from the tail pipe and blowing water from the plug holes when cranking - lots of it in my case. At least you know now, and its very fixable.Micron wrote: ↑Thu Aug 19, 2021 10:39 pmWell it looks like my worse fears have been realised, I believe that a head gasket has gone.
I have now lost water, and I collected some in a lot at the end of the exhaust.
I have tried to post a picture but no go at the moment, will try tomorrow
The car ticks over and I even managed to keep it going for a bit, but lots of white vapour out the back of the day
How hard are they to do?
