Not really. unless the head was cracked. Blow back is from bad piston rings.

SOURCE: blown head gasket

I would change both, as well as use new head bolts. Make sure your heads are not warped or cracked, especially the one that is leaking. There may not be any need to change the head if it is not cracked. These are prone to blowing a gasket especially after 150K miles or so. It will not cost a huge additional amount to change both head gaskets since the engine will have to be disassembled down to the heads anyway. Hope this helps you, Rick

SOURCE: I HAVE A ISB CUMMINS ENGINE AND LOW WATER CAME ON

You may also have an oil cooler bad. Oil pressure 10 to 60 and coolant 15psi. Flex in the cooler can keep oil in but after engines off the coolant psi stays for 10 to 15 min slowly seeping into oil. Check it out. Price....i...don't know but could be about $200 to $!000. DIY new oil filter and lube, 10-15 10mm bolts>>$400

SOURCE: crankshaft seal blows out oil leak

The fix is replacement of motor!! I have the same problem and have already paid $700 in repairs to fix seal just to find out that the seal is being knocked out by loose crank shaft..Car had 60000 miles when I bought it 4 months ago, from a dealership, and now it needs a motor replacement..I stiil owe $5000 on a car that is worth $0..Dodge did not give the 100000 mile warranty they love to advertise on TV for the '06 Stratus..They only gave 36000 warranty because they did not think it would last much longer..Will never buy Chrysler product again!! They do not stand behind what they sell or they would have 100000 mile warranty on all their cars..

I have oil mixture in the freeze plugs

This is a most definate sign of a blown head gasket. A bad radiator could be the cause but is less than 1% likely.

1999 dodge stratus 2.4 engine is where radiator coolant is boiling and car is making strange noise

This could be a number of things causing this. It could be the thermostat, the water pump, the fans not coming on, or a blown head gasket. The blown head gasket will cause you to get water in the oil most of the time. But it is going to be one of these. I would start with the thermostat. It is the cheapest. Water pump is the least likely.

Hi i have 98 camry it blow white smoke not only on 1st start, but only sometimes.driving up hill and it is rattling and blow white smoke and the car have not enough power.pls any help suuggestion is very...

Sounds to me like the head gasket is blown, but there may be sealant in the system which is making it intermittently leak antifreeze into the cylinders.

A bad cylinder head gasket will also cause a compromise in compression, which will cause a lack of power.

Time to overhaul or replace the engine's head gasket, or replace the engine with one that doesn't have a blown head gasket.

Good luck on this repair.

1998 Dodge stratus 2.4 Head Gasget.

Go get a second opinion. A bad head gasket shouldn't cause an external oil leak (unless it is really bad and you are using quarts of oil a week). If anything, I suspect it maybe a vavle cover gasket causing oil on the engine.
