Flathead conundrum.

[KiWinUS]

Yeah, I think I needed the voice of reasoning. I really don’t even have time to work on the Flatheads I do have.
Maybe I’ll just make an offer on one or two of them and see what happens, worst he can say is no. And I’ll probably be better off for it.

Just a suggestion but a piece of PVC tubing dipped into the barrel all way to bottom like a straw block end and pull out to check for water in bottom of barrel as that would be a real mess.

Sounds like you are looking for a reason to not accumulate them. Then again, from my perspective, if I had the room, and the price was right, I would not think twice about taking them.

We shall see,
I mean, I wouldn’t mind having one or two of the pickled engines just to see what kind of shape they’re in. I just don’t know if I wanna take on the whole package.There is a lot.
Next time I go over there I’ll get some pictures.
Kiwinus,
I have some paste that you put on a stick, it changes color if there’s water in the oil. Kind of needed it all the time up here.
