Hello everyone and I have a major problem and would appreciate everyone's input as it have been awhile since I tore an engine apart. I was driving home and the engine got hot without warning so I pulled into a gas station and fill the radiator with water so I could make it home about 3 miles away.
Prior to pulling into the station the truck wasn't going over 25 mph. I did make it home and once I shut the truck off it never started again. I noticed anti freeze coming out of the exhaust pipe just past the y-pipe.
I immediately thought head gasket or warped head.
I have taken out some spark plugs to a compression check but does anyone know the average pressure I should be getting on a compression check. The truck has 155000 miles on it? Also Is there a best way to remove the heads
