Long story short. Radiator hose punctured after going over stump. (All I noticed) did a quick fix filled it up with water, temp was okay, continued my drive, noticed temp was going up, pulled over, car wouldn't start, came to determine the head gasket blew, got it replaced put everything back together, replaced oil and added new water as well as spark plugs, tried to fire it up still won't start, makes wining noise when I try. Pulled dip stick to find chocolate milk creamy color. Not sure if it's an old mixture or new either way it still won't start.

Hi,

The noise you mentioned has me concerned. Can you record it and upload it for me to hear? Also, when you had the cylinder head removed, did you notice any damage to the valves or pistons? This has an interference engine and if the timing is off, it can cause damage. If I could hear it cranking, I should be able to tell if it is a timing issue.

Let me know.

Joe
