Hi all
I'm
New here.
I'm on my second RRC and have landed a stinker.
Stripped heads on a cooked Vm engine and fitted new ones gaskets bolts etc.
Engine won't turn over except very slowly.
Suspected Earth leads etc. Cleaned and copper greased.
No change.
Now I'm
Starting to suspect stiff pistons.
Any advice?
I don't think it's the starter.
Starting to get a bad feeling down there in me pistons!
She started after a pull start. But won't start off the key, won't even turn over properly with proper charged batteries.
The orininal heads were very cooked. The clamping positions had sheared.
Blocked waterways and leaky rad caused the over heating.
Any advice?
Anyone and new pistons and rings if it is that road?
I'm going to stick with the VM as I'm in too deep already. Thanks
