Burnt valves???
Hi,
I am a new member without a truck yet, but I do have a commitment to get one from a friend of mine. It is a 64 or 65 Fleetside with the V6 and 4 speed, SWB. It does not run right now and I am being told that it has burnt valves from unleaded gas being used.
The burning question is, is that problem common or is he mis-informed?
when I get the old darling home I plan to do a compression test to see how solid that area is, but I was just wondering if unleaded gas is an issue.
I have been working on cars since I had one, about 52 years so I do have some experience in repairing many items. I current have a bunch of old Jaguars and a 52 Willys Aero Ace couple that my grandfather bought new.
Looking forward to discussions problems and sharing this new iterest for me.
regards,
gerard
