Cavitation or misinstalled Head Gasket?
I,m new here. Does any one know how to tell if a head gasket was put in wrong or if it is cavitation damage? Let me tell the story: oil in water then water in oil, so I pulled the heads & found out 1 was cracked. replced it with reconditioned one & reconditioned & replaced the other 1 Truck fired up & ran fine even up to op temperature. The next day I had water in the oil so i drained it & when i put water back in the radiator it came out of th oil drain on oil pan. Pulled both plugs for sensing units & top port shows no water, but bottom port has water. Is there a further check for cavitation damage or how can I pinpoint my problem w/o pulling the heads back off. By the way, it's a 6.9 w/ about 280000 mi. on it. Please let me know if anyone has any solutions.
