Hey All,
A few months back I bought this 62 Cadillac. It had been sitting, not running
for roughly 7 years. Just about two weeks ago I got it driving. I rebuilt the
carb and water pump on it, and did a general tune it. It runs like new, and
I've driven it about 100 miles or so this past week.
Sounds like you need a good flush

I have the exact same problem with a 454 in my 95 Suburban. I also had a clay
like sludge in the bottom of my overflow bottle. I am suspecting my problem is
a head gasket but can't say for sure.Godspeed, Dan SolomonIt is a mistake to
allow any mechanical object to realize you are in a
does it look like oil?? then again from sitting and a fresh we.p you've got
some crap moving round the flush idea and refill is a great place to
start--did you change thermostat-with flush would be a smart thing to do.

We will keep
I would drain it, fill w/ water (assuming you live in a place where it
doesn't freeze this time of year and are not taking any long hot trips
with it), run it around for the afternoon, drain it, repeat a few
times and see if it starts coming out cleaner. Could just be crud that
was sitting
Just wanted to run this past the list before I made the wrong decision.
Well, I'm looking for a small sandblaster for small jobs. And I noticed that
one has a different look vs. the other so I'm sure the is a difference in
something, I'm just not sure which is better. They are both similar in
They operate the same, only difference is capacity. I have the
first one used it this AM for the first time in ages, worked fine for
me.With either of those, you will need a 60 or 80 gallon compressor.
I just upgraded my compressor last fall, today was the first time I used it
So I'm assuming the second one has some kind of cap or plug that closes off
the fill hole. I see that the first one has a closeable screw on cap over
the fill hole.

Yes the Easy Fill type will not require a funnel to load. I have the one with

Kyle, The easy fill style has a handle with an inverted disc to rubber gasket
seal. You lift the handle as you pressurize the tank and it self seals. I have
this type and I'm very pleased with it.

I agree with John. BUT I would hook up the heater and turn it on so as to flush
all out that may be settled in. How does your oil look? Smell? Check for any
trace of anti-freeze in the oil just to be sure you don't have a bigger problem.

Good idea to turn the heat on. May as well flush out the core too.
Change your heater hoses too. It could be dry rot coming off of the
heater radiator hoses.
