Omega General Help / water in plug 4
« on: 15 June 2012, 22:05:56 »
I am well aware of the scuttle probs..but not talking about that
ok all here we go
suck.squeeze.bang.push.
[1]piston makes its way down the bore and the inlet valves are open and the fuel is coming in...
[2]piston gets to the bottom of its stroke and at some point valves shut and piston starts its compression
stroke with all valves shut.
[3]piston then gets near to tdc and BANG .spark. and the piston is forced down.
[4]piston makes its way back up outlet valves open and dumps the burnt gases.
i have a 4 pot engine and have water in the number 4 plug hole...how can it be related to a head gasket fail
the only way i can see is on the compression stroke..for water to get in there it must be forced in there
to sum it up i cannot see how a H/G faliure can put water in the hole...
i may be missing something here and gonna end up looking like a turkey...well wont be the first time.
i have thought about when engine is cooling and metal is shrinking...now water can leak into cylinders...not
plug holes[25 NM] gases dont get past but water can...wont have that
but it starts first time...never had a lock up ie[trying to conpress water]
no misfire,,,,,,,,,,,,,,its the scuttle;;;

got home and had a look at what codes it had stored p0303 cylinder 3 misfire detected
