  1. Michael S says:

    The thermostat is usually right after the water pump, so if you take the thermostat housing off, of course water will come shooting out when you try to start.

    As far as water in you spark plug holes, you have a cracked block.

  2. Hank Scorpio says:

    The intake manifold gasket was the problem in most of these cars. Take it off and take a look.

    97 dodge stratus is a pos you shouldve sold it years ago

  4. Sandman says:

    If you have water coming from your spark plug holes, then you have water entering the combustion chamber. This can be caused by a cracked block, a cracked head, a blown head gasket, or possibly a cracked intake manifold or a failed intake manifold gasket. Does the water come out of all of the spark plug ports or just specific ones? Try doing a compression test. Make sure all of the cylinders have similar readings. That will help point out or eliminate a block/head/head gasket problem.
