mr big 0 Posted May 15, 2005 Report Share Posted May 15, 2005 Hoping someone can help me out here. Just replaced, headgasket, timing chains, tensioners etc etc on my 93 passat vr6. Put it all back together and its filling the garage with smoke and pissing fuel out from what looks like the back on the head around the exhaust manifold. Plug no1 is soaking wet and black but 2 and 3 are ok. The exhaust manifold is soaked!! What do I do? Im too scared to drive it anywhere: fuel + exhaust manifold = new car!! Any ideas would be very gratefully recieved.........otherwise its going on eBay!! Link to post Share on other sites
acf8181 0 Posted May 15, 2005 Report Share Posted May 15, 2005 is the fuel coming out the fuel lines undernath brake servo? Link to post Share on other sites
mr big 0 Posted May 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2005 Its a LHD car, so I can see the fuel lines quite clearly. It is definitely blowing out of the exhaust manifold, now runinng like a sack of shit at idle and all 6 plugs are black as soot, with no1 still wet! Link to post Share on other sites
mr big 0 Posted May 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 Please! There must be someone on here who has had this problem. I have tried disconnecting the air flow meter and it makes no difference, if anything its worse. Link to post Share on other sites
