Hi guys I have a problem with my car, its getting water in cylinder 6 & 7
went to start the car the other day and it won't start, cylinder was full of water
so took the plug out crancked it and the water came out, I put the plug back in and it starts no problem then the other day I started it and a gush of water came out out of the left exhaust. Did a compression check today and all the cylinders show they are in their normal range 175-190 . even cylinder 6 & 7 where i found water . I heard water can also come in from the timing cover , but think if it came from there it would go straight to to oil pan right ??
If my headgasket was blown it would have to show lower compression right ??
I got this new ported lower intake but the holes in the middle I don't know what they are called are not plugged, the other one i had had them plugged, could this be my problem, and yes I did put silicone on the water ports of the intake and head and retorqued them 2 times after driving..
