Re: Plugged Water Jackets in Heads ?!

Do yourself a huge favor and pop the core plugs out of the block. 
Then scrape, dig, brush, and flush all the casting sand and crap from the 
base of the cylinders.            Your engine will run cooler after a good 
clean up.

Subject: Plugged Water Jackets in Heads ?!


I know , if it aint' broke don't mess with it.  But I really wanted to
mess with my engine to learn more, now I might be glad I did.

I pulled the heads and most of the waterjacket holes were completley
plugged with rusty crud.  In the head side and in the block.

I pushed some out and left some for photos where you can see they are
plugged. Some crud went down into the block, some in the head.  Do I
need to flush the block somehow or the heads?  I don't want this stuff
just filling up the head water holes again.

Also, in the pics you can see how the factory gasket appears to block
some of the water jacket holes in half.   That doesn't seem right
unless they are contolling flow?

anyhow.. below are pics...  most likely they will show up as links as
I can't seem to post an actual pic yet.
