Earl & water don't mix (King of Idiots) Posted by tibbidoh [Email] (#1014) [Profile/Gallery] (more from tibbidoh) on Wed, 12 Nov 2008 12:48:53 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Just for general information, the reason I started this project a year & a half ago was a blown head gasket (water in the oil). During the repair the timing chain tensioner broke and had to pull the engine. Dummy here never dropped the old oil and got busy with other things and finally got back to the car. You may have noted that I put up a question about the oil pump not working, it seems that the water had separated from the oil and in checking the oil it looked pretty good (dipstick didn't reach the water)so I thought I would run it around the block a couple of times and then change oil. The pick up tube reached the water and of course doesn't pump water so voila, what in the f*&^%#$! is wrong w/ my oil pump, pull the engine again . . . .
