1992 Chevy Blazer V8

I bought a 1992 Chevy Blazer. It runs but not for very long. It loses oil presure and over heats. Also its seems that anti freeze is mixing with the oil. When I bougt it I was told it had a blown head gasket. I am new to fixing up vehicles and want to know if this is my problem or not and how to go about fixing the problem.

Those had thin wall casting heads that were prone to cracking. Removal of the heads and having them checked for cracks at a machine shop is your best bet. The oil pressure loss, could be due to bad bearings from having water in the oil. Might also be a bad oil pump. Would haev to remove th eoil pan and inspect thebearings to see. Not a good job for a beginner
