thanks for the advice, i thought id take the easy way and just do the intake, after i started it up with fresh oil and new antifreeze, the car did idle but had a sluggish throttle ,i put my hand on the drivers side exhuast tip and the pressure was strong enough to blow my hand off the passenger side was weak my hand wasnt blown off, im guessing the pas. side head is either cracked or blowm gasket, no over heating, no oil in radiator, but after i shut the car off let it cool i pulled the rad. cap and it was almost fuul, i pulled the oil plug drained it (water again)i went to bed with the oil plug out when i woke up i found the radiator very low, checked the oil pan(i left the oil plug out) the antifreeze that was in the motor oil came out into the oil pan over nite, , anyway im gussing its the head or gasket but i was supprised all the fluid came out thanks again for the help
You shouldn't leave the block out of that diagnoses .
