Oil/Gasoline in Radiator......

Asked by bakerj May 10, 2015 at 04:04 PM about the 2006 Chrysler 300 C RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2000 Chrysler 300 that I got from a friend that was attempting to fix a control
arm when his wife suddenly got transferred to another state and he didn't want to mess
with the car. The control arm isn't my issue, he recently told me that there was
gasoline mixed with the coolant in the radiator. My question is two part.... first, is it
possible for gasoline to get into the radiator, or if not, is it perhaps oil, and if so, is that
a head gasket issue. Sorry, I guess this is a three part question... third, if it is a head
gasket thing, would that be an expensive fix...???  Thank you
