Checked the oil for ring dust after 3 hours on the engine and found water also, probably 6 ounces. Then checked head bolts for 70 ft/lbs. All execept one were pretty close in the spec range. The front right bolt (nearest to generator) spun around and discovered the stud treads are stripped. I tried another stud from a spare block with the same result. Guess I'll have to try the heli coil. Any tips on using the heli coil repair? Would the stripped stud be contributing to the leak? Can I reuse the head gasket, and would damage be minimal with 3 hours on the engine? Grrr.
