So I just picked up that ‘74 race car and started digging into it.
First issue: water in the engine. When I pulled the air filters off I noticed the was too much liquid in carbs to be fuel. That led me to pull the intake manifolds off the engine, and when I did that water spilled out. Fun. So the intakes are off the engine now, spark plugs are out, and I just drain the oil in the first 90 seconds of what came out was clear enough to drink water. Never seen that before, was kind of cool in a OMG sort of way. The oil that then came out looks like it was brand new, honey golden still. Any coaching on now what? I think I saw a thread on this before but have not been able to find it. |
