um. when I just took my turbo manifold off to get re-welded due to a small crack I noticed there was water in the #3 runner. It's a 100% stock long block that ive bin driving pritty hard on 7-10psi sometimes when I get on it a little smoke will come out the exhaust but nothing crazy. oh it also burns like a quart every 2 weeks. whats the deal?

 

sounds like the headgasket

 

or a cracked sleeve

 

could be, does the car overheat?? i would do a compression test, if it were a cracked slleve or headgasket the test would show it. I think your best bet would be to pull the head. It might sound like a lot of work but its the best way to diagnose your problem.

 

ya for a while I thought it was the rings. I have bin driving like this for a like 90days, but today I gonna pull the motor and head. Im probley gonna put after market pistons in but im undecided on witch ones to get.

 

na I have never once had my car over heat
