Cadillac Northstar Overheating

Thermagasket is the Final Solution for the Cadillac Northstar Overheating and Head Gasket Issues

Since the introduction of the Cadillac Northstar engine, they have been plagued with cooling system vapor locking problems and head gasket failure! Which comes first? Who knows, we see customers with vehicles that have less than 50,000 miles that have been babied, then we see vehicles that have 150,000 hard-driven city miles that have never had a problem ( Until 150,000 miles )

We have observed that, after assisting in the repair of thousands of these vehicles, the failure is a progressive issue.

  • Coolant loss for no apparent reason (no visible leaks, etc.).
  • Vehicle starts overheating (Typically starting with sporadic spikes and drops in temperature with the vehicle under a load on the Freeway or going uphill! Then gradually getting worse until it overheats constantly, no matter what type of driving.
  • Frustrated, you take your beloved Cadillac to the mechanic, and the following happens!
  • They correctly diagnose that the cooling system is not circulating correctly! There is no coolant flowing through the radiator.
  • They start replacing parts in hopes of repairing the problem.
  • Replace the Thermostat, and the vehicle still overheats!
  • Replace the Water Pump, and the vehicle still overheats!
  • Finally, in the succession of Trial and Error, it surely must be the correct radiator! Replace the radiator and it STILL OVERHEATS!

With everything in the cooling system replaced and no additional charges, they diagnose a Blown Head Gasket and inform you that you need a new engine. At this point, with the replacement cost of an engine between $ 5,000.00 and $10,000.00, you're faced with spending more than the vehicle's worth or selling it for scrap.

Not So Fast!!!

Common sense tells us that unless the cooling system is circulating, the vehicle will overheat. If we can get the cooling system circulating (Eliminate the vapor locking problem) and stop the overheating, we should be able to seal the minor leak in the head gasket. ( Most Northstar Head Gasket Leaks are minor, typically there is no water in the oil, no oil in the cooling system, and no white smoke or steam from the exhaust )

Thermagaskets' Proprietary Cooling System Equalizer quickly solves the vapor locking issue within minutes. Once installed, the cooling system will circulate better than new. Now that the cooling system is functioning correctly, we can run the Thermagasket Head Gasket Sealer through the system and seal the Head Gasket.

The Northstar is known to run extremely hot, 20 to 25 degrees hotter than your typical V6 or V8 engine. Once the Cooling System Equalizer has been installed and the Head Gasket is sealed, you should see a 3- to 5-degree drop in normal operating temperatures.

The Thermagasket Cooling System Equalizer is proudly made in the U.S.A. from 6066 Wall aluminum with all solid brass hardware, Gates high-temperature hose, and Clamps!

Typical installation time is 10 minutes!

Once purchased, you will have access to the best Head Gasket repair Technicians on the planet to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have!

Most head gasket failures are caused by engine overheating. If you’re not sure why your engine overheated, review a shortlist of the most common causes below.

Sudden Overheating:

  • Defective Thermostat
  • Defective Electric or Clutch Type Cooling Fan
  • Cooling System Leak

Recurring Overheating:

  • Defective Radiator Cap – not maintaining proper pressure in the cooling system
  • Defective Electric or Clutch Type Cooling Fan
  • Plugged Radiator or Heater Core
  • Sticking Thermostat
  • Cooling System Leak

What is a blown head gasket?

A blown head gasket is a breach in the gasket whose purpose is to form a gas-tight seal between the cylinder head and the engine block. This type of breach typically occurs in cars that have severely overheated. During severe overheating, the head or block warps, causing it to pull away from the gasket. The unsupported gasket fails under the high pressure of combustion or heat from the cooling system. Once the gasket is penetrated, exhaust gases escape from the cylinders into water cooling ports and often into adjacent oil ports. When this occurs, the cooling system malfunctions, resulting in the engine overheating.

What are the symptoms of a blown head gasket?

The most visible sign of a blown head gasket is steam visible from the tailpipe after the car has warmed up. However, many cars with minor damage to the head gasket don’t show any visual indicators. In this case, the cooling system must be checked for the presence of exhaust gases.

Another symptom frequently encountered is the presence of water in the oil. It appears as a milky white emulsion under the oil cap and on the dipstick.

How does Thermagasket work?

Whenever there is a breach in the head gasket, a cracked head, or a cracked block, a hot spot develops at the point of the breach. That hot spot can reach temperatures 3 to 4 times that of normal engine operating temperatures. When Thermagasket comes into contact with this superheated area, it instantly forms a perfect high-temperature seal. Once Thermagasket’s metallic alloys seal the breach, heat is deflected away from the patch, eliminating the hot spot and preserving the long term integrity of the repair.
