A friend gave her my cell number...

Hello, I am Jane Blank
I am a nurse and 300D owner.
John Blank gave me your number in case I had car trouble.

Well; I have a problem, and need advice.
I bought the car about a year and a half ago.
Bought the Haynes manual and some metric tools, changed my fuel filters about two months ago.
I noticed this black slime on everything under the hood and started cleaning.
Last week I found this crack in the exhaust manifold pooping black slime every place.
I cleaned it up and gave the car an enema with the garden hose and dish soap; until it ran clean from the crack in the exhaust manifold, (without turning off the hose) I cranked it over to blow the water out.
The engine made a really loud wet FART, shook itself and stopped.
The engine has not run since then.

Guiding her over the engine; I determined the exhaust turbo housing was broken, the exhaust manifold crack was three times larger than before the enema.

Here is where I informed her that the engine was junk.
I explained that she forced water into the piston cylinder and it is not compressible = bent rod or other bad damage + hydraulic shock broke the turbo and finished off the exhaust manifold.

Her comment:
I guess a diesel enema was a bad idea.
