My 240sx has 191,000 miles on it, and up until a couple of weeks ago had only minor problems. I thought it had blown the head gasket (antifreeze in oil) but when I pulled the head the gasket didn't have any tracks. So I am assuming a cracked head or block. How do you figure out what and where might be cracked? I have done a good visual inspection of the head and don't see anything, and am wondering whether to just get a used engine. Also, I noticed the head gasket is missing a lot of cutouts for the cylinder cooling passages. The new gasket also does not include cutouts that would allow coolant flow. Why?
