Re: Greg's 50 Build
Well crap.... So I continue to chip away at my project and 2 weeks ago everything was fine. Yesterday I went to the garage and saw something chewed through a bag of bird seed and made a mess on the floor. I hadn't been in the garage much the last 2 weeks so no telling exactly when it happened. I walked by my truck and saw something chewed through the bag I had on my intake for dust protection.
Well I looked in and my intake had a mouse nest in it. I pulled my intake off and the drivers head is full of seed and 4 baby mice and a mama mouse came out of the intake.
This engine is freshly rebuilt. I haven't even put oil in it yet. I vacuumed the seed out of the intake ports of the heads as best I could but the heads have to come off now and I will pull the pan just in case. I am hoping it didn't go to far and I can just clean things out with carb cleaner. At this point I will be happy is if just costs me the money for new head blots and new head gaskets..
Sigh........
