mk water problem

Post by to_easy »

NISSAN PATROL L28 MOTOR
The other day my car was running rough so I pulled the plugs out to see if I had a dead plug and when I pulled the no:6 plug out and turned the key to see if it had spark water came out of no: 6 pot . could is be a head gasket gone around number 6 pot. ive had a look at the oil and there’s no water in it and there’s no oil in the radiator and also ive noticed a bit of water dripping out of the tail pipe when the cars running.. Any thoughts

head

Mate being an L28 its prob the head that is at fault. These alloy heads were renouned for corrosion around the water ports. Hence one day it corrodes toooo far get water in cylinder. You may find that with it running you get bubbles out of the radiator. Pull head off and find out

Go to super crap and buy a bottle of rad stop leak.

BUT BUT only the one that is in a clear bottle and looks liek it has copper shavings in the bottom.

This one, and only this once has yielded 100 sucess rate on all the motors ive used it on.

Usually diclaimer and i have just put on the mandatory suit Image
