Evening all.  Last month I was tinkering under the hood and I noticed betwe=
en the 5 and 4 spark plug on my 85 4kq (111K) that the head gasket/ block l=
ooked to be wet.. Didn't worry about it.. well a few days ago I cleaned the=
 block paying close attention to scrubbing around the head gasket making su=
re it was squeaky-clean.. well after two (warm dry) days of sitting the dar=
n area was wet again. I know the antifreeze was at good mixture, and I am s=
ure the block never froze but being paranoid I can't stop thinking that the=
 damn head is beginning to twist; or could it be that the head bolts just n=
eed to be torqued to setting?  Thoughts??  Thanks in advance..

Jeff
