    now when you say its "sucking all the coolant into my motor" do you mean the the coolant is ending up in the oil pan , IE its mixing?

    does it ever drain back to the radiator?

    Yeah I posted in another post the details of the problem. I made a few different posts in different sections.

    I noticed the problem several days ago so I did some diagnostics. The coolant was basically sucked through the main radiator hose connected to the motor in a matter of 5 seconds. No coolant is ending up in the radiator mixed with oil which I have had happen before. You fixed that problem on my last car. As for the oil being mixed with he coolant that's basically what happened. It sucks too because I changed my oil just 2 days before this happened.

    The dipstick has no distinguished oil marking it's all one big mark about 3/4 of the dipstick with beads on it, which is what water does when mixed with oil.

    I'm about 95% sure I'm getting my motor from hmo since they do extensive checks on compression and all sensors and everything works. As well as the motor being very reasonable for such low mileage only 35k avg.

    I'm hoping to get it done sometime this week or next and be done with driving my pos back up car. I miss my teg.

    Since I'm going to Gwinnett Tech to become a tech this is a great opportunity for me to work with a friend and learn how to swap out motors.

    Thanks for all the help and directing to good sites.

    Hopefully I'll be doing some sidework on my car and have a v8killer
