Started on the engine
My son had a mate over today and they wouldn't leave my old truck alone... after removing the fuel pump, they decided to remove the rocker cover – then called me. I decided to keep going since they had started... looks like 2 broken rocker arms and a bent rod so far.
restore 12.jpg restore 13.jpg restore 14.jpg Since I am new to this pulling apart engine stuff, I was a bit horrified when I initially saw the pistons. But a lot of compressed air and WD40 seem to make a big difference. The 4 centre pistons now move freely but the end ones only have about 10mm of movement. (Is this a major problem?) restore 15.jpg We kept at it till dark and I am happy so far with the results. Does anyone know where to get rocker arms and rods? Do I just replace the broken ones or do I need more?
