Forgot to put coolant in car on first start because was so excited to get running. Ran for six minutes in idle. Think blown head gasket or worse? Car doesn't start now.
It is unlikely a blown head gasket would make all four cylinders down. Are you sure you put the head gasket on at all? Also you shouldn't reuse a head gasket if you pull the head again. Some do but I don't.
Managed to get it to run for about twenty seconds and it shut off. RPMs still rose up slowly and went down slowly as a revved up engine. everything on the intake is capped off so should I go on ahead and pull the head? Since its still acting like I have a vacuum leak?
Took the heads off drivers side cylinders in excellent condition. Passenger side has metal shavings everywhere. Time to sell off my good parts and save for an ls1 swap. I can complete the swap with $2k. Going with a5.3 for now
