I have a 91 Wrangler 4.0L with an external leaking head gasket and I just moved to Seattle and haven't tracked down a good/ reasonable mechanic yet. I was hoping someone could help me with a ballpark estimate? Would it also be worth it to get a valve job too since everything is open? Or what else should/ could I address while the case is open?

Hi,

i could answer the price question but I dont know what the rates are up there, but your on the right track with having the head gone through while its off, at a minimun a pressure test,

just go over all of your other parts to see how they look, water pump, belt, timin cover gasket, just give it a good once over and replace anything suspect

i would def replace the thermostat

thanks
