Hi.

I replaced the head gasket about a month ago. Now I got water in the engine oil again.

I was wondering if you would know about some common problems similar to this in the jimny engine.

Probably the cylinder head that has a crack in it what do you guys think?

Thanks.

It has water in it, the picture isn't good enough, if you look close at the end of the stick is a grey oil wich is mixed with water.
