Kas,
Why is # 3 a problem. This past weekend I blew a head gasket at # 3. I know
because
with all the plugs out and spinning it with the starter it blows water out of
# 3.
I suspect the damage was done earlier in the season. We had three races in a
row
that ambient temps were over 100. I either warped the head or have a partially
collapsed
water jacket.
If # 3 is subject to more heat then can it be helped or fixed all together?
Last month there was a thread on cleaning up water passages which I plan to
follow
this winter.
