    "Well the coolant is coming out of the number 3 cylinder. It's internal to the engine I'm doing further testing to determine exact issue. Cooler is not cracked. "
    Just received this from my mechanic. Any thoughts? Dropped liner? Head gasket? Craked head? All the above, perhaps?
    Head was replaced a month or so ago along with cam $11k bill.

    How did he determine where the coolant was coming from #3? Dropped the oil pan?

    Apparently my guy confirmed a crack at cylinder 3. New head being put on again at no cost to me other than down time. Any ideas on why this is happening? 2nd head in as many months.
