Well......dang.
Been having some motor issues. Running rough and going low on coolant every few weeks. Didn't have foamy oil on the stick or PCV valve and was hoping it was a bad intake gasket. I'm off this week so I yanked the intake and the gaskets looked good and so do the intake passages (ie, no clean ones). Same goes for the plugs. I did notice some minor signs of water in the oil when I pulled the dist and also in the lifter valley. It's slight though and might simply be condensation related.
So, what now? I'm tempted to pull the heads and do new gaskets. Partly to simply rule them out and also because I have a couple stripped header bolt holes and that way I could helicoil 'em.
Any thoughts and/or anybody free this week to come over and take a look?
