I haven't been able to take pictures yet, but everybody I've talked to said it sounds like a Head Gasket.
Is this painful $$$$ |

This topic is gone over extensively in the first of volume of my new handbook series- Sealing The Type IV Engine.
I don't use gaskets and do go over the entire process to create a leak free engine, both from oil leaks as well as combustion leaks. The handbook should be printed in 6 weeks. Sorry for my lack of presence guys, the copycatter really has me watching what I post and not saying much that he can cut and paster- thats why its all going into print now instead of the net.... |
