yep so i found out the head gasket is blown and should be replaced as well as the serpentine belt. I am so mechanically stupid that it hurts to think i cant replace the head gasket myself but i need this car to last untill i get out of college so for another 3 years. oh if anyone one wants to know the mileage its 170k now Woot. The people who looked at the car estimated around $450 for the replacing of it. Just wanted to know if this is reasonable price cause i read earlier post about crazy insane prices and then people who replace the headgasket themselves which I would love to do but know nothing about doing it.

you cant buy a new engine for 800 bucks.. You can buy a used engine for around 800 though.. and there is no garentees that this used engine has less wear then yours.
