well, I've found that my damned volvo has a blown headgasket.

B28F engine.

haven't done compression test to see which bloody head it is, but I'm going to do that soon.

I'm beginning to think this fecking '85 760GLE isn't worth the work anymore, I've had nothing but bloody problems with it since I bought it in January for the princely sum of 2400$CA, having my ears filled with the unfailing reliability of volvos, how they scoff at a quarter million miles. Mine's at 150,000km, and DEAD! It's been undriveable since febuary, and I'm about ready to throw it on the scrap heap and buy something more reliable.

now, what does it take to fix a blown headgasket on a 760gle? I'm dirt broke, and want to do this on the cheap, so as to avoid sinking thrice this car's value into it.

any suggestions/comments/death threats/etc appreciated.

thanks.
