Sorry guys - I need to clarify this - I was referring to the cooling system. The radiator was clogged (motor oil poured in by the town employed mentally handicapped, really) so I pulled the pump, themostat house, and finally the head and put stiff wire down a port and could feel a ton of gunk in the bottom. Last night I used hot water, a garden hose and air. The air would stir up the muck and the water carried it out the drain. After filling a 6 gallon can 20 times, I have clear water running though. Now for the oil pan and filter canister. I have my case of ND 30 at $9.36 a case, and I'll use that until the rebuild or repower. Remember, this is an addition to a WM I restored. Just getting it past mom into the garage was a feat in itself. She still has her parking spot, so I'm safe for now. Thanks for your suppport.
