MY 1990 ford mustang gt started a weird knock i opened up one of the valve covers and found antifreeze i drained the oil and found no antifreeze mixed with the oil could this be a crakcked head? or what else can it be ?

sounds like the head gasket is blown....

driver22691 · 04-20-2009

you thinks so even though the oil had no antifreeze in it

Yeah and you probably caught it at the right time....

Why would you think a cracked head has the car got really hot on you or somethin....

i thought it was a head gasket if antifreeze is in the oil . it was only in one valve cove the other was fine thamks for the advice.

Head gasket could be either way and it could also blow out in between two cylinders and cause a lose of compression pretty much running on 7 cylinders.....
