hmm . not realy sure ae, I figured the whole thing just shat it self, the yellowy stuff is just oil/water mixed. Im guesn thats were the head cracked the morst but when i took the head to the engine rebuilders he said it had so many cracks that it was beyond repair. so i bought a new head. The odd thing was that when i checked the dip stick i was expecting a yellow guu but it was lumpy black ?? it never went yellow even when it sat for half a year with the water and oil mixed. But it was yellow on that piston..... Hope the bearings are ok, thankfully it didnt seaze. Just want to clean the block, chuck the head on and see if it goes ...... haha .
