BGB420 Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 I have a gl wagon that just lost a bunch of power and started spitting exhaust out of the oil fill and dip stick. there's no water getting into the oil either. I was told it is either a blown head or just the gasket but, in all my expiriences a blown head or gasket dumps water into the oil too. any one have a better diag. ?

nipper Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 Sounds like you have alot of blowby past the rings. Maybe one stuck ring or more, or a broken ring. nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
