Dump kerosene down the cylinder and let it set for a few days. Just had to
do that on one cylinder on a 57 Chev worked like a charm!

Guys,
One of the club members 64 - after sitting all winter in a heated garage -
is
pumping oil up the dipstick tube. My thought is it got some flash rust on
the
cylinders; or has some sticky rings. Oil level is not too high; orifice
in
balance tube is clear; I'm guessing engine sounds normal.
Anybody have any ideas / recommendations?
Thanks,
Andy K.

================================================
Has he driven the car and gotten it warmed up real well?
Is he running 10w30? go to 20w50!
