The middle gear cover looks like the center has been pushed out.
The cam looks like it might have had too much heat, referring to the 'brown' triangles.
Other than that I didn't pickup anything untoward.
Now on the coolant leakage? Pull the heads, and I would go the whole gambit, everthing! if you are planning on fixing this one. Maybe a lot cheaper to score another one, but maybe not half as much fun. This one is going to set you back and lonnng ways.
Love it Boss, had no problems like some old guys on this board.
When I got on and seen the HOME PAGE,, it was woowwwwwsie douusie.
Love that picture!!!!
Easy enough from my looking in. Grab a carb making sure that it is install ready, so, no open ports, tape off the bottom (the part that goes into the boot or manifold), make sure it's sealed well, now slowly pour water down the throat and see where it comes out. The throat being the air intake part that is usually at the top. Now when the test is done, you could just turn it upside down to drain or you could punch a weeee little hole in the tape, and time how long that takes. Just a pin hole eh!?! Wanta keep you busy for a bit.
You can gravity bleed them if you like, sometimes it takes longer or doesn't complete the job at all. Hence the suggestion to do a reverse bleed, a vacuum bleed, or other methods.
Basically all models bleed with the same idiosyncrasies. (had to use spellcheck for that one!!!)
Here North of the border we are hoping you voted for the right one. It seems we don't have any say in the matter, we just got to sit and be quiet and then stir the pot when it's all over.
No,,, we don't want to know who you voted for!!
Not something I often do, but I read through the whole thread, even Puc's diatribe and Patch's redirections. Me thinks that it would make a whole lot of sense to scarp that engine and install another. It is never a good thing to get the sugary stuff into the internal mechanicals of such a fine tuned machine. I would be skeptical of having more issues down the road, unless every little item were super cleaned and double checked for wear, which might or might not have happened previously.
Will you guys hush up about the cost. Now you'll have @Freebirdlooking at the whole picture and then he will realize that it cost more to have us Canucks be members. Then he will change the fee schedule. You know it takes more to move BS than other things!
There is the + button to reply to multiple quotes and then there is the word "quote" that lets you reply to just the one quote. Sorry,,, maybe it's just the English way of doing things,, had me the first time.
Gotta kind of figure this out. Looks like a small lake to me.
Water on the boat? I thought that's why there was water outside the boat,,
And if SweetNothin was there,, where is the cheesecake??
