Engine tear down.

January 15, 2006, 06:33:17 PM

Started tearing down the engine out of my 86 Mark. Good news and bad news.

Good news: Didn't break anything.
It has E7 Heads. Sold them for $100.
Block looks as if it had just been rebuilt.

Bad news: Carbon build up on everything inside.
Got sick while pulling parts off.
Block is still in the car.

Sounds like the people before you didn't like having the oil changed regularly.Are you still going to build it up?Just stick a dog turd in your nose,that will make you forget about that burnt smell.

That happened in 30K miles on mine. There are worse things.

It was more of a silly putty consitancy and only in the cyclinders. No where else was dirty. I still havn't opened the oil pan though. It could take a turn for the worse.
