This post is a little confusing, i still havent fixed the problem. Im not even sure now if its leaking through the intake manifold gasket, is there any other way water could get into the fourth cylinder? The weird thing is that i never had a problem with water leaking into the fourth cylinder until i took off the intake manifold and put it back on.

The water flowing into the inlet manifold it to heat the inlet and make the fuel atomize better....(square holes??).
You might have a blown head gasket???

The water dosent flow into my manifold, it should be blocking the water off but it could be getting through and going into port four, its the standard manifold i think, with twin solex carbys. I hope i havent blown the head gasket, its a bloody new rebuilt motor.

Another wierd thing is that the water level rises in the fourth cylinder when the motor hasent even been running, i can see it through the spark plug hole, the water rises up through the hole.
