The head gasket in a car's engine is like a protective barrier that separates the engine block and the cylinder head. It creates a seal to prevent any leakage of combustion gases or coolant between these two components. It has the crucial task of maintaining the proper compression ratio, which is essential for the efficient combustion of fuel and air mixture in the cylinders. Additionally, the head gasket also ensures that the engine oil and coolant do not mix, preventing contamination and potential damage to the engine components.
