my 89 v6 is loseing water some were but dont know were from ,no oil in water but it has a ruff idle like water is getting injected with the fuel

abecedarian

with nothing else to go on, I'd say head gasket.
have you taken the radiator cap off and looked for bubbles?

cgovia

it bubbles big ones not small ones and on oil in water the guy I got it from just had some one replace the valve cover gaskets and radiator toyota did the head gaskets in 89

abecedarian

losing water and bubbles in the radiator are 95% head gasket caused.
...sorry....

Sounds like a HG. Do a pressure test of the cooling system. Make sure its the HG.

cgovia
