Engine problems
Okay so im new here. But figured this might be my best help. I have a 98 durango with a 318 i had a blown head gasket and had coolant all in my combustion chamber and oil. Now i did a complete head gasket set. And now ive got everything back together. Here my issue. Its for one still leaking water into my chamber and oil. Also my Entire combustion chamber(PISTON HEADS. ALL VALVES AND ALL MY PLUGS)( IN BOTH HEADS). are completely black. Now it wont start and is backfiring. What would cause is to be havibg a coolant leak still cracked head or block? And the valves and plugs are in bad shape? Can they be cleaned or should i replace? And whats causing it to burn? The water in tge chamber? Flooded chamber? To much air? Bad valves? Sticking valves? Valves not closing completely? Also smoke comes fron my engine(not really so much from tailpipe) Ive taken this damn thing apart 4 times and i cant figure out whats going wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Heads could be warped. Take them off and to a good machine shop to have them shaved and rebuilt. It will cost you some money but worth it in the long wrong. Use a good set of head gaskets. I'm not sure what your year calls for, but possibly a multi-layer metal gasket would also help if available.

Hi silly question but your not reusing the same head gasket ?was your surfaces clean and shiny or was a heavy grit sandpaper used ...did you check you combustion chambers for cracks between valves .mine were cracked 3 spots on both heads ..a thick piece of glass layed down on a good clean table put head on top nicely and use your feeler gauge/spark plug gapper to see if you can slide them underneath the head .. if u can then its warped .
