Punctuation is free on this and most sites.
Yes, we understand you are upset. Is the coolant in the cylinder or in the plug wells? Are you losing coolant? Any CEL's? If so, what codes? How does it run? Right now, I have no clue, need more input. |

OP, calm down. Please take a few minutes to actually type out your thoughts in an orderly fashion. It makes things much easier for us to help you. Then, please fill in your profile. It will help us help you as we will then know exactly what car you have an where you live so we can steal your stuff recommend a local shop if needed. As for where the coolant is coming from... Did you torque everything down properly? How is it running? Is it running? Have you done this sort of job before or did you just watch a Youtube video? Where is the coolant that you're seeing? In your plug holes... You mean your spark plugs? Yea, that's not good. If it's coming in from the cylinder, it means you have coolant in the cylinder. Unlikely that it's from the turbo, unless you have a leak in your turbo housing. Unlikely it's from the throttle body. More likely you didn't torque the head gasket properly and/or clean it, so some coolant from the coolant passages next to the cylinder is seeping through. |
