I don't know if I would use the head gasket, but if you were to buy all the individual gaskets, you would definately spend more money then that kit! Id say its worth it.

There is no point of sea foaming the engine if the head gasket is bad. If that is the case, I would resurface the head (when they do this they will hot tank it) and check all the clearances and replace valve stem seals. Id do a leak down and compression test before jumping to any conclusions though.

if your not getting oil smoke out of the exhaust its more likely that you have a bad pcv valve and a bad valve cover gasket. you would probably do better cleaning the outside of the motor than the inside as well.

I doubt anyone changes the PCV on our cars, and if they do, probably forget about the oil separator -_-

You just want to see cheach and chong clouds come out of the back of your car. Lol. Not saying that seafoaming is bad, its just, if you are smelling burning oil, and its not smoking our of the tail pipe that means what you are smelling is oil burning EXTERNAL.
