had this prob for a while po300 all to do with misfire changed coil pack,moved leads around,changed plugs still the same. Noticed on plugs on 1 and 4 a rust colour which i assume is water as water bottle same colour. I Usually get gaskets
blowing between 2 and 3 cylinder is this normal for 1 and 4 to go or is it more serious than a gasket. the plug was cleaned just the day before to check spark. No 1 plug which was new yesterday was removed today and it looks the same as this one. no's 1 and 4 look like this 2 and 3 are usual colour. i'm losing water as well, no water in oil just a bit of coffee in the cap.[img:f7dfea7595]http://www.2carpros.com/forum/automotive_pictures/578299_fiat_4_1.jpg[/img:f7dfea7595]
