Threehz Posted June 21, 2011 Share #1 Posted June 21, 2011 Yesterday I pulled the engine on my 77 after lots and lots of waiting and preparing it piece by piece! Got caught up a few times, and had some very scary moments but now she's out and ready to be given a deep cleaning, along with the engine bay. Since I got the Z and started on my plan to give her a really deep clean and restoration there have been quite a few times when I've thought maybe I should have just got her running and skipped all this nonsense, but the deeper I get into it the more I see that this is the right way and the more pleased I am with my plan which is very motivating to say the least! There she is and her strong little straight six heart! One of the best feelings for me will be knowing there isn't one pine needle left on or in my Z. Every little step brings me closer to that! Let the bath begin! Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/39969-the-pull-is-complete/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
robftw Posted July 1, 2011 Share #2 Posted July 1, 2011 I suggest using easy off oven cleaner on the block, it will make life much easier Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/39969-the-pull-is-complete/#findComment-360282 Share on other sites More sharing options...
240260280z Posted July 1, 2011 Share #3 Posted July 1, 2011 spray wd 40 in the cylinders after washing and keep them well oiled too. rings will rust if you get moisture in there.
