It happened to me on my G6 and it would dump a lot of water into the crankcase. I'm not sure what your water problem will turn out to be, but, don't forget the water pump. A good place to get Moline parts is from Welters, 417-498-6496. [Reply]  [No Email]

Does it look like the heads have ever gotten hot?? Is the paint and/or grease burned off them?? If so, they might be cracked causing your water issue... And or caused a valve guide to seize up on the valve breaking the rocker arms... Howard [Reply]  [No Email]

I would second Cliff"s idea of checking the water pump. They are pretty prone to problems, though they typically will leak to the outside more commonly than the inside (at least on 605s & old style & HD 800s )... If it gets hot on you very quickly and/or runs hot with bubbles in the water, might have a cracked head or bad gasket... Howard [Reply]  [No Email]
