  • 175 V6 -93 Head gasket?

    A 1993 V6 that seems to take in water in one or two cylinders at low rpms/idle. Runs just fine in higher rpms. I know its hard to diagnose over an internet forum but what could be the most likely cause? A crack in the cylinder wall? Headgasket? Exhaust port?
    Dont mind the Swedish spelling!

        29 year old head bolts! That would not be fun. I would try some less invasive diagnostics that were mentioned first.
