[QUOTE="Petro, post: 1225219, member: 751"] Yes, Pressurized the cooling system and found nothing out of the ordinary. Did a few more tests and couldn't seem to find anything out of the ordinary. That doesn't surprise me, because this puking issue is hit or miss. Some times it will puke 2 days in a row and some times it will go 3 days without doing it at all. I yanked the motor yesterday, and pulled the heads. The gaskets seemed to be perfect yet. Hell I had to pry the heads off, so neither head was extremely warped or anything. The only thing I found out of place, was in cylinders 4 and 6 I found a small amount of rust on the bottom side of the head, so moisture was getting in somewhere. Cylinder 4 also had a few marks on the cylinder wall that shows were some coolant had sat in the cylinder for a while. I can't find a noticeable cracks anywhere and everything else looks brand new inside. So the question is, Find a whole new motor and eat the cost OR risk throwing on two new heads with new gaskets and praying it had a head issue? [/QUOTE]
