But this did all help in getting the engine and transmission back in the hull after a freshen up with some fresh paint between the engine rails.
This is all a bit familier from a few months back with the MK1 ! and i think i will be doing this all again on another carrier in a month or so !! But thats another story !

It looks to me that who ever sprayed that engine didn't plug the plug holes and sprayed paint right into the engine..
I'm sure that the plugs went in after the spray job and the engine..has now hardened spray paint in on top of the pistons..
I'm sure that that will break down and be exhausted but would bet $$$$$$$$ that the oil would be effected by the burnt and lingering paint residue and will happen as soon as the gas mixture hits the paint..
..
Lot easier to do it right the first time that do it over..
Just my observations but I may be wrong..
I have been wrong once before.
happy new year.
