Blown head gasket????
hi i got a 91 jeep cherokee limited thats got a 6 inch lift on it and has the 4.0 HO. Recently i was thinking about trading it so me and another guy switched vehicles for a day before we officially traded. his was a 7.3 idi f250 that i soon found out was a piece of crap. so i went and got my jeep back and what do u kno?? its covered in mud and now it is leaking antifreeze slowly from the oil pan. It doesnt white smoke or nothing so idk what i should do?? the jeep seems to run fine other than a choke problem when starting cold. so anyways i wass just wantin to know if anyone had any suggestions??
thanks.....

We are gonna need more info. Drive it tomorrow and check the coolant level at the end of the day, if its not low then you might not have a bad head gasket

Be sure that you have properly isolated WHERE the coolant is leaking from. Fluid leaks can be tricky as the fluid "migrates" and where it drops off is not always where the cause of the leak can be found.
You could have a coolant leak that is dripping down and finally exiting by the oil pan.
Time to get underneath it with a good light and look around.
And yes, verify coolant level!
