OK gang, I need help. The TR3A is using water and it appears there is  
oily water in the radiator. It does not look like there is water in  
the oil. I did a compression check and have 150+ lbs/sq-in on all  
cylinders. I am assuming a head gasket. Is there anything else that  
could explain the symptoms, and is there any other testing I should do  
before pulling the head? The gasket that is in the car currently is  
about 6 years old. I rarely, if ever, drive the car faster than 65 mph.
