Ok I’m tearing down to the smallest components. Thank you for all your help. I will update in near future. And yes liquor was prob a factor. Can’t fix stupid.
When you tear it down, make sure that they have the rods correctly oriented to the pistons.... The squirt hole should be on the same side as the valve relief "eyebrows" and point to the inside of the block, and the anchor slots should be on the outside of the block...
