Causes of a Blown Head Gasket. After that brief overview of blown head gasket symptoms, let us have a look at the prime causes of a blown head gasket. There are more than one reasons that may cause a head gasket failure, ranging from inherent structural problems to engine problems.
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.ost head gaskets go in the area between cylinders. That is the narrowest section of the gasket and it also sees the highest temperatures and pressures. I always machine both the block and the head when I replace a head gasket.
