Well I finally got some time this evening after changing the oil in my truck to start taking apart the TO-35 that I bought a couple months ago.
I know these pictures are nothing spectacular but I enjoy looking at other peoples pics so I figured I'd start a thread and post some as I go.
Got the hood, gas tank and rocker cover off so I can troubleshoot the odd chirping noise it has when running. A friend of mine who is a mechanic has his money on a burned exhaust valve. I'm going to borrow his compression tester and check all the cylinders before any further disassembly. I'm charging the battery overnight (2amp trickle) so I can make sure it's turning over well for the test.
I also drained the "coolant".......I put that in quotations because it wasn't exactly the colour I remember coolant to be. Well, one of the pictures shows it flowing from the drain. Quite a bit of sludge in the passages. It's going to need a good flush!
Without further ado, the pictures.
See Tony, Mine says MHF on it too......only not in the same place yours does.
