I am needing help in identifying if I have a blown head gasket. It all started 2 weeks ago when after the dyno, the car began running worse and worse. I was driving one morning to play golf and during acceleration in 2nd, the car just shut off. I was so pissed off that I just had it towed back to my house and I began to tear it down, still in my golf clothes, ha. I didn't even care to try starting it again, which i regret now. Well I got it put together last week but ran into a small coolant leak on the lower intake. So i pulled it off, cleaned all the coolant out of the valley, sealed the intake back up real well and put everything else back on. Last night I drained all the oil and coolant out of the pan and I let it drain from last night until tonight to make sure everything drained. Then tonight I used an extra quart of oil and let it run through so it would flush the pan of all the coolant. All that was coming out was oil, no coolant. So i plugged it up and added 5 fresh qrts. Then I tried starting it. It ran, but really rough and I was having to force it to stay alive. The throttle wasn't corroperating either, I could put it to the floor but it wouldnt go above maybe 2500. It would just start getting real choked up. I checked the dipstick after that and it was milky again. I dunno if that was from some coolant still in the pan maybe or what. But it won't run like it should so I am needing some help.
