Jus' wanted to know what all is involved with replacing the head gasket, How hard it is..etc. Im pretty sure it's the head gasket that needs replacing sence there is oil in the coolant.. Could be wrong though. Thanks

its easy!

- take off all sensor wires and cables and label them so you know where to put them back
- take off the valve cover so you can see the cam
- take out the 8 or whatever head bolts
- pull the head off
- clean gasket surface with a soft wire brush
- new head gasket
- head back on
- hook eveything back up and

YOUR DONE!
