There's your problem right there! You can't trust those old farts for nothing Ok, next up; did you check your oil? Any milky stuff?
When I drained the oil prior to the head gasket change, I swashed it around the drain pan and it looked good.
I only checked the oil after the car had been running and smoking for a few minutes. Looked fine.
