look at the sludge there, yuck.
I really hope its only the gaskets and not the heads
Now i have to figure out how to clean all the gunk off the manifold since its pretty toasted on there
Brake Parts cleaner or some purple power. Let it soak for a while.
While stuff it apart, clean up the throttle body aswell.
And make sure to put RTV in the 4 corners of the LIM, sometimes people forget that small step.
brake cleaner, and a scraper does well, razor blades to clean up the matting surfaces, then brake cleaner and a rag to wipe it down.
clean any crap you can see out of the heads cooling ports too.
at this rate he will have it up and running my morrning haha
im voting this guy "best noob ever".......:th_thumb-up:
Best i could do as far as cleaning with spray cleaner,i couldn't find a small enough brush for the tight spots
He just strikes me as a guy that knows a little about cars and took the matter into his own hands.
And he works fast lol.
I wish! Lol i have to find the gaskets 1st.i doubt autozone will have themQuote:
