AAZ Diesel water leak. Head Gasket?

Post by mikec »

Hi

My temp light started blinking yesterday. stopped to find water running down engine. It appeared to be coming from front two glow plugs. BUT engine sounded fine.

Is this cyl head gasket?

Can it be anything else?

Can I drive short distance to put it somewhere easier to work?Is there anyone near Kidderminster who can help?

Thanks

Mike

Sounds fun... How short is a short distance? Will it/does it hold water at all? Is it not just leaking from something above?

Posted reply a couple of days ago and didn't realise post failed.

Water coming from front two injectors, not glow plugs. BUT only when up to running temp.

Any ideas?
