[QUOTE="andyjax, post: 107753, member: 6589"] Hello all- 2001 773G turbo, overheated once or twice but didn't run it hot. Now coolant in the oil and guess I've got a bad head gasket or crack in the head. I just drained the oil and coolant out of the crankcase, drained all the coolant out of the radiator, refilled crankcase with oil and ran it for one minute to try and preserve the lower end. Ran fine. Previous threads recommend pulling the entire engine but I really don't have the place for that. I can pull the head with no problem. I've got to have the machine, so thoughts are welcome. The engine was in great shape when this happened. No oil burn, about 1300 hours. What's the worse and best case for just pulling head. I gather that if I pull the head and there's coolant in a cylinder that's a bad thing. [/QUOTE]
