kaoss Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Just pulled the intake off my l20b that hasn't ran in about 8 years, not sure what to think about what I found on top of the valves/inake runner area. Should I just try to clean this up with the shop vac and a little compressed air? Quote Link to comment
Farmer Joe Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 pull the head and see if the bottom end still turns over... maybe the bottom end is still worth keepin and youll just need a good head? Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Looks like it was maybe stored out doors and got wet. If so the cylinders will be crunchy too. Quote Link to comment
DatDoug Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Spray some WD40 into the spark plug holes & let sit for 24 hours. Quote Link to comment
Sealik Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Pfftttt....looks good.....pay big bucks up here for comparable work :lol: 1 Quote Link to comment
EricJB Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 The third pic looks the best, probably because the valve also looks open a bit. I think those ports are not the worst of your problem. You might want to dig a bit deeper. Quote Link to comment
kaoss Posted March 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Guess, I'll try to take a peak inside the spark plug hole. I really don't want to pull the head. This does look good though. Quote Link to comment
kaoss Posted March 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 I took some wd 40, the shop vac and some compressed air after them and they cleaned up surprisingly well. I'm not taking after pics, those were hard to take! Quote Link to comment
