right on monkey

 

what did you put in there, or anything? Did you just blow it out??

 

All I did was put 100PSI through the water jacket. I did it for like 30 min and it's still blowing out more shit.

 

I gotta decide how to get the rest of the shit out.

I put my engine block on an engine stand ,,, pushed it out in the driveway ,,, punched out all the core/freeze plugs ,,, probably got 1/3 of a yogurt cup of rust/debris AFTER pressure washing it out really really good ,,, between cylinder walls especially ,,, for about 30-40 minutes all over ,,, at least :blink: :blink: :blink: :mellow:

 

I love Brass Core/Freeze plugs btw :cool:

I considered it. Actually I'm thinking brake parts cleaner may be better, since it will dry better. I may just take it to be vatted though.

It may help me to put it on a stand and pull the freeze plugs, but who knows tongue.gif I'm gonna waste more time on it one of these next few days. I'm busy as hell.

You're the one who is ALWAYS in the kitchen cooking not me. LOL
