So I learned a new thing yesterday!
Engines that sit for a while get their rings stuck sometimes and just running and revving the damn thing makes it fix itself sometimes. After spending 8 hours taking the cover and oil pan off and retiming the engine only to have 80% leakdown still, I almost gave up and called a local junkyard to deliver a new engine to me. At the last minute I decided to put the cover back on and just start revving. 5 minutes later I redid the leakdown and compression and every single cylinder has 5% leakdown and 220psi ![]() I hope this is the last of my funny luck with this car. ![]() Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
