Swap Rust?... What to do?

[sicivicguy]

SO GUESS WHAT HAPPENED TODAY!... I went ahead and did what my dad told me he used to do when he had engine motors seize up on him back in the day... WD-40 down the spark plug hole. IT WORKED! and the car move back and forth great now. AND!...

When I removed the Valve cover to check out the cams THE RUST CAME OFF! ... I havent started her up yet and I asked the local street mechanic (my neighbor) if this was normal and he said "yes... and when you start her up the engine will clean the rest itself..." I'm so happy and relieved... was about to take 1000-1500 grit sand paper and try to remove just the rust. NO NEED NOW!

Yeah... it didn't but it was a false alarm... I guess the place that I got the engine from told me that they do not keep the engine's intake mani closed... The engine wasn't from a water damaged car... THANK GOD!... The place assured me that the engine is in great condition. CANT WAIT TO START HER UP NEXT WEEK! :-)

Where did the rust go? Inside your engine. That's bad. Its just like if you have a tooth decay and you use some chemicals and the decay came off and you swallowed the decay. Now the decay is gone, but where did it go? Inside your body.
