[Amc-list] 66 Ambo compression/unstuck valves



Well; after 3 times using trans fluid and multiple times with sea foam there is no longer any engine noise and all 6 cylinders have 160 to 170 psi cold engine.  I am reluctant to let the engine run for more than a minute just thinking there certainly must be some sort of residue of that gooey burnt molasses looking stuff left in there and I dont want to take any chances.
  So; I'm just gonna leave a temporary fuel supply hooked up with gas and sea foam mix handy just enough to start and pull it in and out of the garage (actually cracker box is more like it) and next weekend out comes the gas tank!
  Thanx again for all who had input and if anyone out there is interested and hasn't seen pics of the car that I turned into a monster...here's a link of pics when I pulled it out of the barn in Missouri and a couple added just before I pulled it in the garage after a much needed bath at my place in Tx   http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2664572
   just before adding fresh gas to that "empty" tank...or at least I thought it was empty......wow....its amazing what happens when a potent chemical (gasoline) gets mixed with molasses goo (left-over residue from evaporated gas left in tank for 9 years)...it's called a nightmare that turns into a lesson never to be forgotton.  Thanx again ya'all!
  Have a great day all!
  Duane
