If head gasket was blown, what are the odds that further damage was done to the engine driving it that way for this short while? I hope it was only 15 minutes, but who knows, maybe it was broken for longer. How easy is it for a mechanic to tell? If I roll the dice and have it towed, pay 3-5k to have it fixed, will I just end up needing a new car anyway if fate decides to poop on me some more? What are my chances doc?
