Bottom end looks good with plenty of oil just kickin it :D


Im prety sure it bypassed the gasket and went straight out the exhaust, it explains why it quit on me and why it missed a little later in the day.

They also aint hard on the juice for 30 seconds through every gear :wink:


Hopefully after sanding the shit out of it it wont leak anymore :D



I expecting blown gaskets on this motor I just want it to stop pissing coolant while im not even using the juice lol

The only real long term fix will be to O-ring it.

The ONLY part of what you said here that is remotely correct is the o-ring part...
