Re: blew up

oddly the oil looks ok and other than the discolor of the water everything looks fine....I'm leaning toward believing the radiator leaked down on me. however it has never shown any sign of leaking before.

my redneck compression test consists of putting it in gear and seeing if i can push the truck....i can...motor turns over with relative ease.

sorry about the "thumper motor " reference. in my world that's just what you call any motor that makes that "rumpity rumpity" sound! ;-)

I'm gonna drive it tomorrow and see what happens. i left it idle for almost an hour today and nothing happened.
