... if the oil that comes out of your recently purchased motor looks more like chocolate milk than oil?
 Could this just be condensation from sitting too long, or is it most likely a head gasket? I've yet to do a compression test, I guess that will tell the tale. If the compression turns out ok, is there something I can clean the motor out with without taking it apart? God, I hope I know what I got myself into....  So Marcus... what does SloPony charge for a 4g63 rebuild....

Is this the motor in one of your recently purchased cars or another one?
I did have a friend pick up a 350 a while back that had some nasty looking oil and he thought the head gasket was toast. Changed the oil a couple of times and it's run ever since without a hitch. *your results may vary offer only valid in continental 48 states good only while supplies last not affiliated with official 4g63 technical forums* -legal disclaimer mumbo-jumbo -------------------- |
