Won\'y crank or won\'t start? Deal with crank first.

If it won\'t crank chances are there is water in a cylinderand the starter can\'t push past that. Yhe water in the oil came from somewhere. The engines cooling system? If you have water in a cylinder, you more than likely have a bad head gasket or cracked head. Find that cylinder! Pull all the sparkplugs. Now with no one in direct line with any spark plug hole and observing which hole ejects water, Tap the starter. The ctlinder taking water will spit it out,forcefully, so watch but don\'t stand in the way. This will show you what hole is taking water. The water seeps past the rings through the ring gaps and ends up in the oil in the pan..If water in cylinder proves present, the head will need to be remove. When you do so, verify your suspicions by examining the head gasket and surface of the head. The head should go to a machine shop for their inspection of condion and valve condition..Lots of miles, have a valve job done. It\'s all yours my friend, The won\'t start problem is obvious.
