List, I wanted to the collective wisdom of the list to answer a question about my friends 1997 Ford Windstar. He has apparently blown the head gasket and was told by the dealer that since water has gotten into the engine the engine needs to be replaced. The car ran when it went in and, while it was overheating, it was running with no blue smoke. My experience has been that repairing the head gasket and flushing the engine oil a few times would get him back on the road, but the dealer says no, he needs a new engine. Does this sound right?
