Well I Finally Got The Car Running...and My Idoit Friend Runs The Car To 6.5 Rpms On Our Test Drive To Break It In.....and Well I Tink He Broke It In...the Head Gasket It Is...
He Hit 6500 And Shifts, And Then My Eyes Start Burning, I Tell Him To Stop And Turn The Car Off......smoke From The Hood........open Hood ....smoke And Antifreze, And Water All Over The Engine Compartment..... (but The Temperature Never Went Up Past The Middle.)...let The Car Cool Down... Drive It About A 1/4 Mile To My House.... Pour Water Into Radiator Hoping To Find A Leak......no Leak That I Saw......crank The Motor, And It Dies Off..crank Again And Rev A Lil, ALOT Smoke Cums Out Of The Exhaust.........turn Motor Off...say A Prayer...and Try To Start Again... The Motor Turns And Sounds Like It Gets Stuck...check Oil And It Seems A Lil Watery....

Is This A Blown Head Gasket....sorry If So Its My First...and I Spent So Much Trying To Get This Car Runnin Dont Think I Can Fix It...could Some1 Help Me And Tell Me What The Problem Really Is??

sorry to be the one to break it to you but that has every single sign of a blown hg. drain the oil and check it to see if theres antifreeze in it for sure which im sure there is by the sound of it. Do Not try to run it anymore you will ruin your motor even more. Id atleast take the head off and look around for a better diagnosis.

First problem: Dont let friends drive your cars!

Second: Spelling and grammar count..There will be a test after. :)

Third: It could be a hose let loose somewhere? But from what you describe, it may be time to start reading about BHG's and a pressure or BHG test.. Water in the oil is a very bad sign of a BHG.. Smoke is also a clue something is wrong...

Go beat your friend with a large metal pole such that he never drives your car again. Only do this if he does not eat the repair costs.

^ Thats what I thought...

I'd suggest new rods/mains... and not breaking them in at 6500, but not letting it just idle either.

:nono:
Letting a friend be the first to drive a car after its been rebuilt/fix/whatever... That doesn't even sound like something I would consider (mainly because I want to be the first to thrash it)
