Chrysler: Head Gasket problem???

I never heard of a light test to determine head gasket problem. The usual test
is compression and leakdown test. You should find another mechanic. BTW, what
was the problem that caused you to suspect head gasket problem?

Be grateful you've gone this long with nothing serious from the head gasket.
My Caravan 2.5 gasket failed at 135,000 kms.

Unless you're really fond of this car I'd suggest just keep on driving it
until you get oil in the anti-freeze, or serious oil leaks, or fouled plugs,
or it starts to burn too much oil or antifreeze, then donate it to your
favourite recycle yard. I gather you live up here in the Frozen North with
winter salt, and if so you probably will soon get one of a number of
terminal safety-related problems i.e. front subframe rot, suspension
component fatigue, wheel bearing failure.

Hi.

Over the past two years I've been loosing prestone, plus my heater goes
on and off during the winter months all on it's own. So I figured that my
heater core was the problem, plus other idle symptoms that are related to my
oxygen sensor & speed sensor which now have been corrected.
So why the head gasket, well the above or maybe it could just be that my
Rad. is at end of life?
Do you know what the light test shows?
