subynut Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 Yup, I beleave I lost the head gaskets. I cannot get her started: after noticing the spark pulses were not consistent, I swapped the ditsy to see if that was the case. Well, when I pulled the ditsy out, the oil looked more like a chocolate milk shake instead of oil. WONDERFUL! I then looked at the dipstick and same stuff: chocolate milkshake. Not as thick as the stuff at the ditsy, but it's there. Compression test time! Cyl 1: just under 60 Cyl 3: 90 Cyl 2: about 60 Cyl 4: roughly 60 also Now, the pressures used to be about 150psi all the way around. NASA, we have a problem. DRAT! :banghead::banghead: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

subynut Posted July 27, 2005 Author Share Posted July 27, 2005 Well, engine overheating is not under warranty. So, I'm going to rebuild it myself. From what I've been told, it's just the head gaskets that let go. So, I spent the day cleaning out the garage, so I have a place to rebuild the engine. Oh what fun!
