Well, I worked on it tonight and got one head off, the passenger side one. There was some oil in the valley where the lifters are. I tugged on all the lifters and they looked ok. When I removed the passenger side valve cover there were traces of frothy oil. At the front of the passenger head there were 2 slivers of metal and I looked around and could not find where they came from. The rocker arms looked fine, the tops of the valves looked ok. There was no more than a couple of teaspoons of water in the 4 cylinders that are visible. Tomorrow, I will work on the other head and see what is happening there. Olddog, I guess you and I were posting at the same time. I have marked everything and put all the nuts and bolts in baggies marked where they came from. I will decide where to go after I get the other head off. I am limited on how much I can work under the car because of vertigo.
