I've driven a dozen miles with a plug wire off and nothing happens. If head gasket blown, enough coolant might get in to hydro lock but doubtful. A liquid such as coolant in not compressible like air is. If enough gets into a cylinder the piston is stopped from rising to the top of it's stroke. The crankshaft will have none of that and the rod bends. This is from a blown KA engine. As you can see, no piston. It disintegrated in the bore blocking the rod from reaching the top and...

nathan.is.an.idiot12312 Posted March 8 Author Report Share Posted March 8 alright so i just spent the last 5 hours pulling the head and reassembling it but i drove it from my driveway into the garage before and it sounded like the knock or ticking or whatever was much quieter, i assume its cause the oil was cold and she fired up just as she normally does except she sounded like a lawn mower lol definitely not a blown head gasket lol i check my coolant for debris and oil often and shes real clean (still was when i drained her to take the head off heres the results: 1 Quote Link to comment
nathan.is.an.idiot12312 Posted March 8 Author Report Share Posted March 8 cylinder 2 was pretty horrific Quote Link to comment
nathan.is.an.idiot12312 Posted March 8 Author Report Share Posted March 8 i assume now that i completely blew a ring and spun a bearing Quote Link to comment
nathan.is.an.idiot12312 Posted March 8 Author Report Share Posted March 8 pretty sure these markings mean the head was rebuilt in 2016 1 Quote Link to comment
nathan.is.an.idiot12312 Posted March 8 Author Report Share Posted March 8 it also looked like i had a 2 clogged coolant passageways Quote Link to comment
nathan.is.an.idiot12312 Posted March 8 Author Report Share Posted March 8 also its nice to know that if i ever did blow a head gasket, its incredibly easy to change on this engine Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted March 8 Report Share Posted March 8 you have a oil pressure gauge? My jeep would know in the morning. oil pressure was erractic. I change out the oil filter and was fine. Not saying its uyour situation. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted March 8 Report Share Posted March 8 From good to bad #3, #1, #4, #2. All exhaust should look like #3 Probably a casting or mold number. If rebuilding why place it in a position that can't be seen? Usually it would be stamped somewhere under the valve cover. Really hard to tell but #3 looks cleanest/driest. How do the cylinder walls look? Quote Link to comment

nathan.is.an.idiot12312 Posted March 8 Author Report Share Posted March 8 (edited) i put my old platinum plugs back (that i thought were fouled back when i was having the misfire problem but)in while i was at it too because it looked like it needed it, i also leared that i have an old weber 26/27 dgav, not a 32/36 Edited March 8 by nathan.is.an.idiot12312 1 Quote Link to comment
nathan.is.an.idiot12312 Posted March 8 Author Report Share Posted March 8 and from what it looks like, and how she starts up and revs, the carb is in great condition too Quote Link to comment

I believe you called us dickheads, so you threw the first punch. We are here to help, but if advice is not taken, or incomplete information is given, then what can we do but sit back and watch? Sucks that you had to tear into it, but at least now that you're there, you can put hands on everything and test/verify to find the problems and make the repairs. Also, try not to take shortcuts, especially when you're learning this stuff. Get advice from your local engine shop too. Bring the head in and have them check it for straight and for cracks. That's the first place I would start. Quote Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted March 8 Report Share Posted March 8 Ok, looking back through your pics, you did not drain the coolant before removing the head, so the wetness could be coolant that spilled over when you removed the head. #2 and #4 look like they have been burning oil, and the damage in the #2 chamber tells me there was some "foreign object" floating around in there. The most common thing is a broken spark plug strap, but it could be anything really. Did you find anything in there? On top of the piston or lodged into the combustion chanber? Quote Link to comment

Happen to me!!!!!!!! that carb is perfect size if there is a 26/27 DGV. I dont think I ever heard of one untiell now so car is now running good? Im kinda confused on whats going going now PS the oil light going out dont mean shit. I ran a 510 out of oil or really low. light dont come on only right before start. soemone says it senses 1 pound it will go out. But on my 510 I went back to the light. as I dont like running chinese cheap plastic lines that come with those cheap gauge kits. over time they crack. then all the oil is out on the ground. If buying a line buy a GOOD one braided type. If this is a oil burner and rings are shot as you said. How much oil you go thru a tankfull. I had a beat 100$ 510 was a quart every 2 days after ran it out of oil. but still ran Edited March 8 by banzai510(hainz) 2 Quote Link to comment

Diesels have removable sleeves, L series are just holes in the block that fit the piston. Explain in simpler terms. Better quality pictures can explain a lot too. Quote Link to comment
nathan.is.an.idiot12312 Posted March 8 Author Report Share Posted March 8 no the car does not run good i was just mentioning that i came across the fact that it wasnt a 32/36 but a 26/27 2 hours ago, banzai510(hainz) said: Happen to me!!!!!!!! that carb is perfect size if there is a 26/27 DGV.

nathan.is.an.idiot12312 Posted March 8 Author Report Share Posted March 8 but all in all i definetly think i bew a ring Quote Link to comment
nathan.is.an.idiot12312 Posted March 8 Author Report Share Posted March 8 i wont know if i spun a bearing until i drop the pan but a blown ring would explain the knocking with piston slap Quote Link to comment
nathan.is.an.idiot12312 Posted March 8 Author Report Share Posted March 8 and yes i drained the coolant from the head when i took the intake and exhause manifold off but forgot to detatch th hose from the head so some spilled in the cylinder i made aure to wipe everything off and dabb the coolant off of everything before i put it on, like i said, the head gasket is good, (looked almost new lol) Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted March 8 Report Share Posted March 8 (edited) just yank the motor now, find another or see whats is rebuildable. 3quarts a tank =shot motor unless PVC valve not working or valve stem seals shot. rings or soembody hooked up a hose wrong from crankcase Edited March 8 by banzai510(hainz) Quote Link to comment
