Went out to try to start my turbo coupe donor last Sunday. Only a click, and would not turn over with a breaker bar. Pulling a plug shows rust in the cylinder.
So now its got to come out and be redone before any swap. Not sure I am going through with this.
Pull the plugs out and spray penetrating fluid in the bores. Try and turn the crank by hand with a breaker bar. If it turns by hand disable the fuel pump and crank the car to blow all that junk out.
