I have a "C" that gets water ( lots of water) in the oil. Could be freeze plugs , head gasket, or O rings. Decided to pull the pan today and then fill the radiator. Did that and the water runs down the front wall of the block, good news its not the O rings, bad news I twisted off one of the pan bolts. Got confused as to left and right since the bolt is upside down. So now it is either the freeze plugs or head gasket. Question where and how does the oil get from the top of the engine to the bottom, is it at the front of the engine. Thanks for the help. ------------- CA, WD, C, 3 Bs, 2 Gs, WC, I-400, 914 |

Hope your right. It may be a cracked liner however. ------------- When you find yourself in a hole,PUT DOWN THE SHOVEL!!! |

Good news it was a freeze plug, looks like someone put a screwdriver thru it. Will have the part tomorrow from Sandy Lake.
