Fluids can be replaced with oral rehydration therapy (drinking), intravenous therapy, rectally such as with a Murphy drip, or by hypodermoclysis, the direct injection of fluid into the subcutaneous tissue. Fluids administered by the oral and hypodermic routes are absorbed more slowly than those given intravenously.
Should you do it yourself. Replacing a head gasket is not a DIY job, unless the person has plenty of experience, knowledge, and the proper tools. The fact that a person would even ask, How to replace a head gasket, would indicate to some that they should not trying to do that repair.To replace a head gasket you must remove the intake manifold, exhaust manifold, valve train, and then the head.This is very involved and requires disconnecting lots of sensors and the ignition system. If you take the cylinder head off then you might want to replace it with a rebuilt one. 2  Or at least get a valve job done. 3  If you decide to do this yourself ensure you either rent all the tools or purchase them. 4  For the first timers I would recommend a rebuilt head they will run between $150-$300 with a core exchange.
1 Answer from this member: To replace the head gasket, remove the 6 bolts holding the head gasket to the cylinder. With the bolts loose hit the top of the head 2-3 times with a hammer. Just enough to jar the head.This will usually cause the head to release from the gasket.hen replacing the head, start all the head bolts and tighten to a slightly tight position. Using a cross pattern tighten each head bolt to 220 inch lbs. If any air is leaking into the engine, the engine will smoke. A bad crankcase breather will cause smoke. Overfilling oil or mowing on hills causes smoke.
