Started it up, took it around the block...
Then back into the barn to install the Group6 +40 chips.
well i install them, and she starts up hard, and is missing a cyl... meanwhile it clears out, but the coolant cap begins to leak.
SO I shut it off seeing the compression leaking into the coolant system.
I pull the plugs and in #2 I can see the coolant pooling on the piston.
So, off with the head this morning, and we are baffled, no sign of leaks on the HG....
Well we start looking at the head and discover cracks in the head, between the exhaust and intake valves, real hairline, and not noticeable until you really look at it.
So in the other car I go, to Syracuse, to GOLDWING, where I purchased a good used head. I would like to say to anyone, if you need used saab parts call goldwing, they can ship anything...but I am glad to have them in my general area, they rock.
So head back to the machine shop for decking, and will be on tomorrow.
