    TO-35 Smokes like crazy

    I looked up z134 engine and it said the compression new was 6.6 :1. With atmosphere at 14.696, then the compression in a NEW engine should be around 96 psi. I would suggest top end work regarding the valves first. Valve guides or seals.

Nothing like the pan on a small block ford pickup. I had a spun bearing, but that perkins diesel ran. i had to have the crank turned...

ALL of the honda cars that I have worked on for him had a drain plug in the gas tank. might be worth some digging online or otherwise if you eventually need to drain the tank. Those sure were convenient...

    I purchased hubs to convert a trailer from mobile home axle hubs to 6 bolt 4wd truck wheels. Chevy wheel center holes are too small. I got my hubs from Pierce sales in Henrietta, texas.

    135 massey fuel pump question

    The last time I ran mine out of diesel I laid on the starter too long. It cost me a field winding. BUT, the gear reduction starter that this website sells spins it a BUNCH faster! I hope yours does not come to that. Mine was because the tank valve was turned off, and not enough coffee to...
