rbjet Skid Machine Donating Members 1,640 Member For: 14y 1m 8d Gender: Male Posted 16/04/12 11:19 PM Share Posted 16/04/12 11:19 PM Our 92 Falcon has a cracked head gasket at 225,000. The local mechanic stuck some chemical weld stuff in the coolant which seems to have plugged the hole but its on borrowed time. It's had a hard life though, lots of stop start trips and probably 15-20,000 km's towing more than 1.5t.Stick an AU steel head gasket in it and it will do another 225,000km Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/17189-vic-spotted-chat-thread/page/2814/#findComment-1223503 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to drive it more.I put around 50k a year on a car. With regular good maintenance I am yet to run into any troubles. All the cars I've had are modified and not driven gently.Yeah, it averaged about 12,500-15,000 a year until the rents got a Grand Carnival in 2006. Then it stayed pretty still until I got my L's. I was just adding it up and I remember why the K's look low to. The Odometer stopped working in maybe 2003 and Dad took almost a year to get it repaired, lol. So it's probably more like 240,000 if the odo was working the whole time. I'm on track to do almost 25,000 in it this year. Done 18,000 since the beginning of July last year.Stick an AU steel head gasket in it and it will do another 225,000kmDad got quoted $2000 to fix it (and put in a few other new parts while it was apart) which seems a bit high. The gearbox is also dying though I think, it has a real nusty clunk going from 1st into 2nd when under load and when moving between P-R-N-D. I've decided I'll get a T before the EOFY sales end and the vibe I've got is that Dad's not going to bother repairing it either. Mum's been pushing him to replace it with something newer and safer for my siblings to learn in anyway so I think it'll just get run till it stops going anymore without spending anymore money on it.
