Reference my "engine Failure" post a couple of days
ago-- Engine is now dissassembled until there are no
more dissassembling possible-- no keys sheared- no
valves hit pistons-- 9 bent/broken pushrods &
tubes--
Dr Don's autopsy report---- several valves were/are
seized in place from long park spell. The broken
pushrods ends are new bright metal breaks-- therefore,
the car must have been pulled or pushed,,, in gear,,,,
to the place where I took possession. When the engine
tried to rotate- the weakest parts ---- and so on.
Incidentally-the PO was not a rocket scientist.
Case closed.
DR Manen- at the Gopher Ranch
Where a Lakewood now lives-
