Nate, Doesn't sound good. In fact it sounds just like some one else's problem in which one of those deep pockets in the valley of death was eaten through into the crank case. I would say you've a got a ways to go before you can drive this car. First start by removing the intake manifold so you can figure out where the leak is coming from. By the way, here's a link to the engine that had the problem I speak of http://babbtechnology.com/Tech/Engine_block/index.htm Good Luck, Todd Nelson 1561, Vermont http://www.rit.edu/~tan5732 To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address: moderators@xxxxxxxxxxx For more info on the list, tech articles, cars for sale see www.dmcnews.com To search the archives or view files, log in at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dmcnews Yahoo!
