I thought that my cooling and missfire issues were due to a blown head gasket, although things never seem to work out as planned.

Notice the crack inbetween cylinders one and two ?



Why and how could have this happened ? It's not a big power car. I had the short motor assembled by my engine builder 6000kms ago.

I beleive the previous owner had new liners fitted by reputable engineering company not long before he sold it to me as well..

I guess i am looking for another block ?
No matter how good I have been this year I don't think santa is going to put a new block under the tree for me!

Thanks,
Damion.
