Fellas, got a stupid question. Which gasket failure will most likely allow water to get into BOTH pistons?
getting milky oil on both plugs on the 9.9

I was thinking that,but its both plugs and compression is goodhuntinfool said:My guess is the head gasket.

A milky substance in that area can also be as simple as an engine running too cold. Specially this time of year!

I have some trucks where I work that have a milky looking substance that builds up in the dipstick tubes because they are not run enough.
KMixson said:I hate to say it but you may have a crack. Cracks can be very hard to find sometimes depending on where they are located and how large they are. If you are sure the gaskets were installed correctly when you installed them the first time I would start to suspect a crack. You may have to have it magnafluxed to find the crack if it is cracked.

I had a Chrysler 105 hp many years ago with one.
It ran fine, compression was fine but had the same problem. The crack was below the combustion chamber area
just another thing to check for
