well if it was a headgasket wouldn't I notice anti freeze in my oil? I did a oil change the other day an no coolant was mixed AT ALL now I do notice when I start the truck the exhaust literally bounces up an down an has a slight skip but not sure why the most noticeable issue is the vibration at 40,I have no loss in oil pressure or anything stays normal temperature an don't overheat!!
i ain't rite

not really. if the head gasket blows between the two adjacent cylinders in the middle of the gasket, it will just pass compression between the two cylinders.
easiest way to tell is to do a compression test. if #1 and #2 cylinders have the same compression numbers it points to a blown gasket.
