Ive seen several post concerning water getting into lower cyls.

My question is how does the water typically get into these cyls; how would you know (what would the engine do); how can you test for this.


Second issue,

Water pressure gauge is low but tale tell is good and strong. Opinions?

1- Bad lower crankshaft seals. Or a bad head gasket for engine that have one.

2- Steam cleaned bottom plug
