I was talking to a guy who said he had his head gasket blow in the
middle of a long trip.  I'm wondering what the chances are of this
happening?  My head gasket have been weeping for 2 winters
and I would like to see a show of E-mail as to how many people
have had the head gasket catastrophically fail?
                                                 Thank for your REply
