94 Lincoln Towncar with blown head gasket, looking to assistance with another (most likely related) issue with water seemingly dumping, or leaking profusely, from the bottom of the engine. Looks to be coming from the lowest of the 'axles' attached to the belts, near the bottom of the cooling fan. Is this the water pump? Suggestions very much appreciated. -Gina

• coolant from exhaust indicates a blown head gasket or a cracked head on the block

If you are in the cold freeze region then it can be FREEZE PLUGS or head gasket,

Freeze plugs prevent the coolant from cracking the block.

The only fix is to replace the freeze plugs.

does the car seem to run roughly? sounds like a possible head gasket or a cracked cylinder. is there an unusual amount of moisture coming out of the exhaust pipe, would smell like antifreeze gaseous sweet smell. a crack will fill either the top of a given cylinder but only when the engine is not running. head gasket will dump water into the oil giving it a milky look also will be prone to overheating

That would be a head gasket leak...

Yes, it is a blown head gasket or a cracked head.

this is coolant mixing with the oil it creates the off white gunk. you may have a head gasket leaking. does it blow white smoke? the intake may have a leak as well. need to find the leak and repair it to stop this mix from happening. a good shop should posses a dye test system to pinpoint the actual leak source. hope this helps

LOOK LIKE A BLOWN HEAD GASKET.YOU GOT WATER OR ANTIFREEZE IN OIL CRANKCASE THE HEAD GASKET IS LEAKING.THIS REPAIR OR FIX THE CYLINDER HEAD HAS TO BE REMOVED TO REPLACE HEAD GASKET.

Hi:
The most likely cause of this is a leaking head gasket or intake gasket. Depending on how much cash you want to put into this car, the best plan of repair is to replace both head gaskets, and when you do this, the intake gaskets get changed as well. You can have the heads cleaned and checked while they are off the car.

most common cause is hoses and next is water pump.

YES it has freeze plugs
