Greetings all,
First I want to thank everyone for the input on the valve adjustment and rough running problem. It was a valve adjustment. And she started and purred!!!!!
Off for a maiden voyage test run. I made I down the block and then the white smoke started (steam) !#%&%^&#.
Yes, white smoke causes potty mouth.
1. Is there an easy (or difficult way) to determine which o-ring failed? 2. if I scrape all the black goop off can I reuse the head gasket (I know I am going to have to get another o-ring)\ 3. any other suggestions/comments
TIA Jere |
