I blew my head gasket. On top of that, my temp gauge was not working properly so I ran my car until it was so hot it wanted to explode. After it cooled down, I added more coolant and was able to drive it home just fine. My suspicion was that the radiator fan was not working so I tested all of that and it was fine. I replaced the Cooling fan temperature switch just in case. The car continued to start on the first crank every time I tinkered with it. Someone suggested Bluedevil head gasket repair so I thought I'd give it a try. I watched numerous videos and for the most part, they had positive results. I started the car up, turned the heat on high and slowly poured the BD in the radiator. I let it run for about 50 minutes. I shut her down for the night and the next day went to fire it up hoping for a miracle cure. It would not start at all. My little Honda has NEVER failed me before. I tried and tried to no avail. It was turning over really strong, just would not start. I pulled the plugs, cleaned them, put them back. Same thing. Opened the air filter cover and sprayed starting fluid in there, same result. Where could this Bluedevil have gotten that's now preventing my car from starting?? Please help. Oh, and please don't lecture me on how I should have replaced the head gasket and not messed with a short term fix, I already know that, believe me. If I had a stack of cash laying around collecting dust or a shop of my own, I would have definitely replaced the head gasket. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
