Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II

Trac209, magwakeenercew2jh- I can tell that the driver side head has been welded previously on the #3 cylinder. At the outside of the #7 cylinder the head gasket material was easy to separate from the steel impregnated in between it. And now that I think about all the symptoms I've seen, I think that coolant escaped through the heat crossover port through my intake and dumped into the #6 cylinder giving the appearance of a blown head gasket on that side also. I did have coolant under my carb and gaskets. But since I seen coolant out of both collector tubes I assumed they both went, so I have already pulled them both off. But the gasket on that side appears to be intact. But I also noticed that the gasket wasn't sealed in between the #4 cylinders.
