postalpsycho Posted June 18, 2005 Report Posted June 18, 2005 If i've got water coming out of my muffler at a rate much faster than a drip or two (it left quite a puddle in the space of about 30 seconds), is that bad? Yes, i'm kidding, I know it's bad...but is THAT a pretty sure sign of a blown head gasket? The car won't hardly run at all anymore, and i'm afraid to drive it. Still no milkshake as far as oil is concerned, but i'm guessing i've got a direct passage from the coolant lines in the engine to at LEAST one of the cylinders? Quote
pitzel Posted June 18, 2005 Report Posted June 18, 2005 Does it resemble antifreeze? Do you get smoke? Try pulling the sparkplugs to determine which cylinder. Or the oxygen sensor to determine whether you are dealing with just water, or actual glycol coolant. In the summertime, under certain atmospheric conditions, its not at all uncommon for these cars to produce quite a bit of water out the tailpipe when idling. But if you are having engine problems otherwise... Have you been adding coolant? Quote
postalpsycho Posted June 18, 2005 Author Report Posted June 18, 2005 Yes, i've been having some engine problems (i've got a couple of posts below), and I just replaced the water pump earlier today. There's tons of white smoke billowing from the tailpipe, too. Quote
