OK you tech gurus out there Iv'e got a question. Is the 2.5 prone to cracking in the head or block, or is my problem with a blown head gasket. The 86 MJ known as Little Ugly blew her engine, (nice holes in the #4 position of the block, wave to your friends on the other side.) I replaced with another 86 2.5. 2 days later, she gets HOT, rattles. Shut her down fast, and had her (they are ALL feminine) towed home. My question is this, are cracked heads and/or blocks common with the 2.5. Any tips on increasing the survival of a head gasket, if thats the problem? I know that center punching the area between the cylinders works on the SB chevy, anything like that for the Heep 2.5
Thanks
