I picked up a core engine from a junk yard and while I was doing enough of a teardown so that I could get it out of my truck I put a wrench on the alternator bolt to see if the engine would roll over. To my surprise the engine rolls over. Have any of you had experience with aan type 4 that's been underwater?

Rust does not happen as much under water.
Now that is out, it will sieze up. Strip it all the way apart as soon as you can. |
