Took Lucy out for a test run last night and revved the engine up to over 5k, something that I had been hesitant to do when she was in such a weak state.
Well, she overruns quite a bit and when you back off the throttle she dumps a big cloud of smoke.
Fortunately it seems to be limited to over 5k and I haven’t seen a need for that in driving her over the last week or so, so a head rebuild can wait.
That’s good because the suspension needs a lot of work….
