Re: [Chrysler300] RE: C300 with water in the oil :(

Hi All:
 
    Had the same problem with my 99 Dodge Ram 1500 (360  ci) and solved it 
by putting a line of deflecting material in an inverted  V to divert the 
water to either side of the block.  Haven't had the  problem since.

On a  similar vein, I noted in another online forum that the 345 hemi’s such
as  are found in my ’05 Dodge Durango have been experiencing catastrophic 
failures  due to rain or carwash water leaking past the cowl seal, standing 
on top of  the block and being ingested into the intake system past leaky 
intake gaskets.  The water goes into the cylinder and, being incompressible, 
forms hydraulic  lock, piston, rod, block and cylinder head failures. It would 
seem that water  leaking from a head gasket into the top end of a cylinder 
could do the same  thing.
