Bad enough to keep driving when known hot. Head gasket would have been a weak link and either the cause of the overheat or result now. Adding water to a hot engine just might have cracked parts if done improperly. Oil on a plug? Was it fresh or like it had been bad on that cylinder for a while? Head needs to be sent out anyway to see if it can even be used again. As I said - are you going to bother?

The oil was fresh.

Check for things you can see by eye on head and block for hairline cracks if found it over for this engine. We know the head needs to be sent out but is the block ok? Overheating would hit the head first but you really pushed it so the book is open. Is it worth it for parts for another or do you have good access for parts for it cheap as I doubt the car overall is worth all that much, T cmputrkd New User Jun 27, 2008, 9:34 AM Post #5 of 5 (1331 views) Re: car overheated, tore the block apart, nothing wrong Sign In Thanks a lot   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
