Dude you got problems. Potential problems, from bad to worse. 1) blown intake gasket 2) blown head gasket 3) cracked head 4) cracked block 5) all the above Break the tools out, this aint gonna be a $6 can stop leak fix. I'd start by pulling intake, u might get lucky if it's just a leaking intake gasket, if not - start yanking heads and so on. Goodluck, Cp |

Dude you got problems. x10 2 quarts of water in oil pan means you need a new motor Potential problems, from bad to worse. 1) blown intake gasket 2) blown head gasket 3) cracked head 4) cracked block 5) all the above Break the tools out, this aint gonna be a $6 can stop leak fix.

pulled one head and intake i'll see what happens when i put it back together thanks , keep u guys posted
|
why only pull one head? if you do one do both. then you can be sure the same problem doesnt exist on both sides. dig until you find.
|
Definitely pull the other head. If you don't find a problem, you haven't done anything except wasted time. There is a leak, so check the head gaskets and the cylinders to see where the leak was. There should be an obvious problem. If the gaskets look good then you have a crack somewhere. Did you run the engine at all? If you did, was there white smoke from one side?

pulled one head #2 cylinder had water in it. I did crank the motor i ran it for about 2to3 min,no smoke probably did not run it long enough. i got to put every thing back together and see what happens, I am learning as i go, so what is the best way to adjust the rockers.
|
Was the head gasket damaged on #2 cylinder? Usually you can tell from the condition of the head gasket. Sometimes from discoloration on the block where it was leaking.

some, not to convincing, I wanna blame it on the intake manifold the water ports on the head is rusted more like water wasn,t traveling in that direction when it should have if the motor was over heating
