A cracked head or blown head gasket,will cause your vehicle to have a miss in the cylander where the crack is or where the gasket is blown. you can also see coolant leaking if the gasket is blown. you can also see water in the oil,and white smoke come from the exhaust.
to tell for sure that the head is cracked,and not just a blown gasket is to remove the head. you will instantly see if the gasket is blown. if its not,then turn the head upside down and look at the small space between the valves,as this is where 99% of cracks occur.

Get a compression tester and check the compression of each cylinder this will tell you for sure you dont need to remove the cylinder head unless you are going to repair the gasket.

Why does my ac blow my gauge fuse?

Hello. It seems there are 'uninsulated' wires in your car's wiring harness for the guages and the a/c. Please be careful because that is a fire 'hazard'. Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.

What steps do I take to change the water pump on a 2200 engine. and where is it located?

The water pump on the 5sfe 2.2L engine is in-line with the timing belt. Facing the car from the front, this is located on the right hand side under a two-piece plastic cover. You will be removing the engine support to access the water pump, so be sure to support the engine. Also replace your timing belt along with your water pump. If you need step-by-step, let me know. I will tell you how.
