Re: Just got done pulling the head
Don't give up hope man. Hope is what keeps me going in life. Specifically- Hope that someday I will have my 2002 sunset metallic orange WS6 with TT2's. There is a reason why your motor broke down, perhaps it was just a fore-warning so you can bullet-proof your motor even more to prevent problems down the road. Good luck and dont lose hope!!!!!Comment

Re: Just got done pulling the head
Sounds stupid but maybe the simplest things. Check torque values when buttoning it up again. Replace the head gasket, if it's had a lot of weight on and off of it, it may distreess a little bit. just my .02Let's flip a coin. Heads I get tail, Tails I get head.Comment

Re: Just got done pulling the head
is that supposed to look like that?, only other thing i can think of would be piston rings, but that would not explain the coolantComment

Re: Just got done pulling the head
That's not actually the cylinder wall where' you're seeing that shape. I think it's the top of the block. Look at this pic he posted earlier, looking down into the cylinder:Originally posted by bah

Looks to be the outline from the gasket.~Chris<br />1999 Hugger Orange Camaro<br /> <a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/ride/273836\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/ride/273836</a> <br /><br />†…faith…hopeComment

Re: Just got done pulling the head
if it's abbott's fault shouldnt they replace the head?Comment

Re: Just got done pulling the head
they either pressure test or flux all heads before they go out, so its not their faultComment

I’m new. I actually don’t own a Camaro or firebird. I do have a 2000 Camaro 3.8 fly by throttle and 4l60e. This is installed in a 1980 Triumph TR7...2 weeks ago -
Not much going on, replaced my Kenwood double din stereo with a Pioneer double din, the Kenwood had problems. Then replaced my power inverter for my reverse...2 weeks ago
