If a leak down test is done on a water cooled bike and it has a Internally blown head gasket will the pressure from the air filled cylinders go into the water passage and up through the radiator filler neck and out the radiator cap, since it only holds back 18# and the air pressure usede in the leak down test is about 80#
I just had a dealer mechanic do a leakdown test to test the ring job he just did because it is using a quart of oil every 600 miles. He told me the leakdown test showed NO LEAKAGE at all but then he told me I had a blown head gasket and I said how can that be...the leakdown test would have shown if it is internally into the coolant.
I think I am being lied to because if I have a blown head gasket it SHOULD HAVE SHOWN with a leakdown test. If there isd anyone with expert mechanic skills PLEASE help me....I am permanetly disabled and on a limited income and can n ot afford the $1,100.00 wanted to fix the blown head gasket. If I know they are lying it will save $
