Anti freeze through exhaust
Hi Guys, I just changed my timing chain, water pump, oil pump, head gaskets, etc. I get all done and when I start it its running rough and as Im screwing with the timing I notice that there is anti freeze seeping through the exhaust manifold gaskets, anyone got any ideas? Abecdarian suggested a screwed up gasket, would it be the head gasket most likely?
Thanks
Thanks

Might check that the throttle body coolant hoses are connected up right, sometimes peeps mistakenly hook them up to a vac line and coolant gets sucked into the engine intake.

Thanks a lot mt goat, that was it. I needed to take a break from it to find it, but that was definitely it. Now I have fuel flowing into the cylinders and it wont start (it did with the coolant, strange) but Im sure I'll figure that out. Thanks again.
