Message	I battled a head gasket issue for a year because the dye tests kept coming up negative. Then I bit the bullet and ripped into the engine and it WAS the head gasket cylinder #6. The way I pretty much decided was that the spark plug was rusty in that cylinder so i swapped it with a clean one and it rusted again while no others did.
