[QUOTE="Geezer, post: 917258, member: 436"] If the head gasket was leaking in a place where it would otherwise seal a coolant passage then you would get a milky color in your oil from the coolant mixing in. It would be obvious. And you would smell coolant in the exhaust. It is possible for the gasket to give out between two cylinders without a breach in the coolant seal. That would cause compression problems and possibly cross firing where flame from on cylinder ignites across to the other and ignites it out of time. If this is happening it can erode the metal of the head and/or cylinder wall. I can't explain the sticky hand. :o [/QUOTE]
