    I got bored

    While waiting for someone I got bored and decided to give a quick once over on my now dead 90` culass. This car hasn`t moved since May of 04`, it`s parked under a tree, and I plan on using it for rotary practice (who needs a panel when you have a whole car )

    Not my best effort but like I said I was bored. The car wasn`t started so I couldn`t take advantage of a warm engine to assist the degreaser.

    I used
    CD-2 engine degreaser 2X
    Castrol super clean
    2 toothbrushes and a good number of rags
    Dressed w/ CD-2 engine dressing

    Before:





    After:






    The previous owner must have used something that had a bad reaction with the aluminum intake and valve cover because they were extremely pitted, maybe i`ll play with it later or maybe not :roll:

    Don`t know why pics a showing up so large they were resized :dunno

    Enjoy, have a happy 4th

    Nice work, J!!

    You`d think an engine that clean would WANT to run now.
    Don`t it always seem to go, you don`t know what you`ve got til it`s gone?

    cej93:
    Don`t know if i`ll bother to fix it, for now i`ll just practice

    big leeger:
    :doh , forgot to mention it was dressed with CD-2 engine dressing, the stuff is amazing, it`s just getting harder and harder to find.

    Norah:
    The engine is fine, with over 180K on it, doesn`t burn a drop of oil, it`s the tranny that let go on me
