well i got the motor to turn with socket.i removed the plugs the poured 4oz of diesel in each cylinder i rocked the breaker bar back and forth then it turns around..i sucked up the diesel i poured in ..i didnt get that much back out..i think its because the exhast valves open and some of it when down the exhast manifold ..by the looks of how the exhast manifolds are it the postion of them ...i looked in cylinders with my borescopethey have some water in,just 2 plugs has a little water on them .....not alot ....im going to change the starter tommorrow ,,,going to pour some marvel mystery oil in it over night then spin it over with starter and do compression test ...hopefully it will be ok .so i dont have to pull the motor ......also whats the best way to pull the eng with trans or without ..or drop k memeber> thanks!

If you have access to a lift drop the K and leave the trans attached.

you may need to pull the radiator and jack the fromt of the car up a bit to get it all out as one. then when you get the trans out of the tunnel and engine up high enough you can lower the car back down and just roll the hoist forward


A/C system you can either disconnect or unbolt and swing to the side

when i did it in my `80, i built a frame out of 4x4 uprights, and 3 2x10's laminated (glued and nailed with plywood between) and a come along. lifted the front end 6 feet into the air while dropping the 'k' and rolling the whole thing out.(on a 4 wheel dolly)
