The owner stated that the intake manifold gasket was bad. He had to fill the radiator after every 15 miles of driving. He told us that he had someone look at it.

It was obvious that water was mixing with the oil, and when we filled the radiator with water and started the SUV, it was blowing water out the tailpipe and dripping from below the engine.

After getting the vehicle back to the garage, we removed the heads, and found that the passenger side head had been severely cracked.

Once we are content that this car is in acceptable operating condition, it will be sold. Actually, as soon as we put our stamp of approval, the car may ALREADY be sold.

find it, fix it, finish it, and flip it. All in a days work.
