ok so i rebuilt my motor and dropped a dowel pin out of the head so i put it all back together and it ran ok for 550 miles then started flooding cylinders with oil/coolent so i took my head off put back in dowel pin put in new head gasket and it started right up do you think that dowel not being there was the problem? or could it be something else? like maybe my thermastate was shut closed my brother said im just asking to double check because i dont wanna break down in the middle of town again lol how embarressing!! and like 20 friends saw me but i hope the dowel pin and new head gasket was all my problem
