Won't budge.
Decide it's time to use my $1,924,873.43 optical bore scope to inspect the cylinders as the owner could not account for a screw.
Pull the plugs from the right bank, inspect, no trouble found.
Pull the left bank and got a surprise.
~ 1/2 gallon of fuel pours out onto the floor.
Drained the oil and along with the 4 liters of oil, ~3/4 gallon of 100 octane go juice flowed out as well.
Changed the oil, installed fresh plugs, and she fired right up.
Smoked like a *****, so I shut her off, removed the fuel-soaked exhaust, and restarted.
I let her idle to warm up the block in order to do a comp/LD test, which it passed.
Replaced the exhaust & rolled her outside to where the smoke would help w/ the mosquito problem.
So far, so good.......I think.
I have a feeling the life expectantcy has been greatly reduced.

Yesterday i got harassed by tracy pd. I pulled over to the side of the road to try to find DVI prison on my navigation system to visit my mom (she works there as an RN). All of the sudden a tray pd tahoe made a u turn got got behind me and turned on his lights. Two cops got out. Came up to my window asked for my I.D., insurance, registration, etc. One of them goes back to his car. The other is just standing there watching us. The other cop comes back five minutes later and asks if i have any weapons, drugs, alcohal, etc in the car. I look back and two more cops pull up. They all go toward the rear of my car and start having a little meeting. One cop is still gaurding us. One of them comes back and asks me why it says I live in modesto, fresno, and sacramento. I told his dumbass to look at the dates and i hand him my change of address card. He goes back to their "meeting" and them another cop comes back and asks what we're doing out here and why i cant find the prison if i have a navigation system. Then another sheriff pulls up and asks them whats going on. He comes up to the window and tell me that I can go and then gives me directions to the prison. I was there for over half an hour just because i stopped on the side of the road . I should have just kept driving while messing with my navigation system and run a cop off the road like last time .

On a good note though my car is fixed. The tumbler generator vavle was stuck shut. They repalced it and now the car runs fine. I also placed an order with paul for my new motor

Most ridiculous piece of legislation ever. There shouldn't be an allowance for civil penalties in there.
