Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) propane related to head gaskets

[rodmeyer]

I been trying to figure out what causes head gaskets to go. Is it to much boost or just the propane? If you keep the boost at or under 35lbs boost with the hx35 wouldn't that be fine?

All I hear is propane is bad for the eth head gasket. but if one uses it like it is suppose to be used not turned up and keep the boost under constrol you you would think that would be fine.

tell me where I'm wrong.

I am trying to get myself in the habbit of keeping boost under 10 lbs. in the mornings until the water temp has come up to normal. I'm just stock on fueling right now, so my head gasket is not in much peril anyway. But I have read on here at one time that high boost levels on a cold engine are great for causing head gasket failures. So when I am BOMBed my head gasket will be a little safer.



Sorry this has nothing to do with propane, just thought I'd mention it.
