" Roger;Your motor is old enou

" Roger;Your motor is old enough to vote!They are very good engines but yours is 28 years old and what kind of care has it had? Cheap gas and cheap oil is never a good thing.If you starved a cylinder for fuel&oil you may have done fatal damage to it.Before going any farther pull ther cyl.head check for damage to cyl.bore,pistons,and cyl.head etc.Did you overheat it?Does your overtemp alarm work?

took good care clean well gre

took good care clean well greased keep nside in garage when not used did not get hot no starving over feed with gas with a 100lbs pressure on each cylinder no damage to head ck all that just replaced head gasket for good measure think carbs was just dirty was problem just cleaned them
