I have a acura with the b18b1 engine in it .. Old head gasket was blown.. So I took head off and had it milled and got a new gasket put it back together and water runs out bottom right hand corner took back apart to make sure nothing was between head and block and put back together same thing ? Any help on this ?

Maybe the problem was not the head, you may need to have the block deck machined. 94

I put a straightedge on the block and everything looked flat...?

just because it looked flat dosent mean it is

Was it a real precision straightedge and did you use feeler gauges?

As mentioned, was that with a precision straight edge, or an old carpenters square?

Then if block head is flat then the head must have been machined, [milled] wrong, you installed the gasket wrong, [or it was damaged] or you did not torque the head down properly.

Assuming the head was machined properly and you installed the undamaged gasket properly and properly torqued the head down, it only leaves the block deck.

As an old machinist, [at a shop we service] told me, even a brand new blocks head can be machined flatter/squarer then "stock" he has yet to see one he could not improve. 94

Another thought would be to check for any cracks as well. I assume by water you mean coolant. Is it leaking from the front or the rear of the vehicle?
