Stop in for a cup of coffee

Holy crap. You all ain't gonna believe this, I went and starting taking spark splugs out so I could run the bore camera back in, antifreeze came out of every single one... both sides. Now wtf would cause that , intake manifold leaking internally? Head gasket failure? Block cracked? Never seen something like this happen just by cranking

I was about to change "Princess Valiant" to "Princess Scampy" because I have a 71 scamp now.

Then I read this:

Urban Dictionary: scampy

Ummmm NO!!!

Interesting. I must not be Urban. Never heard of either of those.

Pretty odd.

Recent rebuild? Heads not torqued to spec?

Not by me. Been sitting nearly 20 years

Either way, engine swap time

I seem to recall someone suggesting that you pull the engine apart and inspect everything before trying to start it.

So now it's all wet, ...like a boat anchor.

Yeah yeah

That's just crazy talk.

I hope this time you will invest in a gasket set and tear the engine down and check it out before dropping it in.

Something break in the bottom end perhaps? Or perhaps something broken in the bellhousing area and it's got it jammed? Trans is in neutral with the axle off the ground as I thought at first maybe it'd popped into drive or something

Undo the torque converter to flywheel bolts and see if it will turn over....

If it will turn over, then it's the trans, if it doesn't it't the engine...

Last time I had a jammed crank, the piston hit the valve and the connecting rod was a pretzel wrapped around the crank counter weight...

 

[krazykuda]

Ray, no one has mentioned your avatar? You should probably find something more appropriate.

I missed it, can he post it again....

Hydrolocked. Who woulda thunked.
Intake gasket.

A little nose candy never hurt anyone.

Or how about "Lady and the Scamp"...

Spun off of Disney's Lady and the Tramp....

Intake gasket.

Turn the engine over with the spark plugs out to get the liquid out of the cylinders, drain the antifreeze, then see if it will crank over and fire with no coolant... Don't let it run for more than 5 minutes without coolant...

*****************************************

Or how about doing a compression and leak down test and go from there...

Go back to basics when trying to revive an engine that's been sitting for years...

Can we say it's Hydro-Static drive???

It's hydro-locked and static so it won't drive....

I've always got old girlfriends confronting me..............

Fixed....

Looks like that home made soup for plating works well. Prob cost 5 a gallon to make.

I saw how big it is. If it is too big for yours it is too big for mine...

That's what she said...

[toolmanmike]

Playing catch up Karl?

 

[krazykuda]

Nice that's the way to do it. My daughter is turning out to be a decent wrench asks a lot of questions.

Why...
