I'd expect it to go away, keep diluting w/gas. monteman98 02-23-2007, 03:43 PM TY i found out what it was, blewa head gasket. and coolant was going in to #3 piston. repairing it now. thanks!:popcorn: fourwd1 02-23-2007, 04:12 PM Great timing.

Sorry you had that happen to you. If it makes you feel any better, this happened to me as well on my last ride. (Ford Exploder Sport v-6) I babied that ride. Always took care of it. ALWAYS! Turned out i cracked the head because they had been known to be a thin cast when they made the heads. Some things are completely out of your control. Hope you had a good mechanic fix it for you and not rake you over the financial-coals. monteman98 03-05-2007, 09:25 PM Im repairing it myself, but im stuck. i need to figure out how to drain water out of the block. i spent over 1,500 so far. getting new heads new fuel injectrors, gasket set water pump ect. but cant go any further till i find out how. help!!

Brian R. 03-18-2007, 01:51 AM I bet you've got a vacuum leak or a hose attached to the wrong port. Could also be a leak in the intake in front of the throttle body. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
