Just opened up Prof. Mullah P. Irwin's pics from the 960. That has got to be the NASTIEST thing I have ever seen inside an engine. Granted, I don't take 'em apart for a living (probably couldn't even remove the head on my 240 if I had to), but that sh*t looks like tar. The Dexcool weeping out of the radiator and coating everything in sight isn't very encouraging either. Is that a Nissens, Tom? Now I'm getting anxious...

What the hell is that on pistons #3 and #4? More sludge or....? I really can't believe that "bad gas" alone would cause something like that to happen. It's freaking unreal. I wish that I knew what to say, but this is waaaaay above me.

Good luck man, and keep us posted.

-Jim
