Engine storing
Just pulled the engine out of my monte and probably will not put in back in for some time. Does anyone have any long term storing ideas? It is a 402 with about 3,000 miles on a rebuild. It has a mild crane flat tappet cam. I was thinking that loosening the rockers would be a good idea for the springs. What about the carb? I have a rochester that jet performance rebuilt and it ran perfectly. I hate to think of what this urine we call gasoline will do if i had left it in. The fuel was drained out so i've been told to put mineral spirits in the fuel bowl. Anybody want to weigh in? thanks
You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
