Update on 1931 truck!!

Post by farmboy »

First, thanks for all the great info. I will join the AA club. Update on truck--In my first post i said the oil pan was off. I talked to the man and he said the oil pan had small pin holes in the bottom. The oil pan was welded and seems to be ok. I have had oil in it for 2 days with no leaks. I have started to check out the engine and i'm about 3/4 thru the list of checks. The man said the engine would run, but the oil pan leaked and there was "gritty dirt in the transmission". I will try to drain the trans and check the old oil. It was really thick when i checked before.thank you,Rick
