Black valves and pistons
By Paul - 03/20/2001 4:59:55 PM; IP 208.37.197.2
I noticed when swaping intakes on my 352 that the valves and pistons looked black and crusty. Is this normal for a 116K engine and if not what should I do if anything? What about the fuel additive stuff?, does it work? The car seems to run well for a "boat" Galaxie 500xl. It does not plant me in the seat when I step on it, but it seems to run smooth and strong with no missing or sputtering.
This thread, so far...
