Hi guys, been using other peoples questions to aswer mine but now I'm stuck. 97 Explorer with 4L OHO has been using water for some time. I may put in a gallon every 5000 miles. Yesterday that changed now every ten miles to fill it up. I was thinking blown head gasket so I started down that road but while taking things a part and looking at the plugs I don't know. All plugs look ok. No I did not do a compresion check. This truck had a dealer change the intake before and I don't know how tight the bolts should be but almost could take them out with my fingers. Trying to be careful as I took the old gasket off it looks like it let go on the right rear corner into the oil galley. So what do you think put new one in and give it a try or keep going. Help thank you pjr
