Extremly high pressure in the 18R-C Wed, 12 November 2003 22:03 Go to previous message
Hello all,
I replaced my engine on the weekend then less than 40km's the head cracked. I put the old head that I knew was ok on the new block. It's all running well except the pressure inside the engine is extremly high. It's blowing oil out the bottom of the rocker cover, into the air filter case and out of the oil cap. The head has all new gaskets and we put loctite gasket goop all around it as well. When the car is running and you take the oil cap off it shoots oil and steam up higher than the bonnet.
Would this be cause by some water in the block from when the last head cracked?? we've changed the oil and I'm about to do another oil change on it. Should I run the engine at home for a while with the oil cap off to let the steam out to see if that makes a difference.
I just want to know if it's something major or something simple that's easy to fix.
Thanks
