    When it was spinning over with plugs in it sounds like not all cylinders have compression. Probably some stuck valves. Some valves might be accessible through the plug holes and may be able to be tapped down. I did like the good access you had to the clutch. You couldn't free off a flathead ford like that. Nice job on the rust. I need something like that for my 32 sedan. That's a job I'm not looking forward to. Oh yeah, my views have tanked too, but I put that down to the T-Bird not being as popular as the 100E. Ok mate, catch you next time! Mart.

    • @CarterAutoRestyling
      @CarterAutoRestyling  14 дней назад +2

      Hi Mart. Thanks for your input on the Pontiac engine. I think once I get the car moved inside, I'll pull the head off so I have full access to mess with the valves. Ps. Nice work getting the T bird to run on 4 barrels! It sounds great!

    If there isn't snow on the ground, are you really in Canada, and not some tropical oasis? I think that you should at least pull the head off of the Pontiac. Since the valves are in the block, it should be easy. You could clean the tops of the pistons, and maybe around the valves. If you're careful you can reuse the head gasket.

      @CarterAutoRestyling  14 дней назад +3

    After applying the rust remover, cover it with plastic food wrap. The evaporation weakens the reaction. Also it's easier to remove.
