Let's hope it's just a head gasket!!! Any history on the last time he was out in it? When did he notice an engine miss or did he?, How many hours on the motor since it was gone through? Let us know what you find.

What failed with the rocker? I had a poly lock crack and back off once on the exhaust valve. Not sure what caused it but replaced and never had the problem again.


The milkshake could be a number of things. Good luck in your search.

My guess, rocker nut broke for some reason, and the head gasket blowing was an after effect of it.
