I had my cylinder head gasket give out on me not too long ago. Once I pulled the head, I found coolant getting into cylinder #4, and a chipped piston on cylinder #1. The gasket had been blown away between cylinders #1 and #2.
My question is this: how did all this happen to cylinder #1?
I can only think that cylinder #4 being under such stress also affected its sister cylinder (#1). I just want to hear from some other (more experienced) people than myself.
Regardless, I have to now pull the motor and redo the engine from the crank up.
