Good to see the old girl fire up. I was concerned with all that water.
🇦🇺✌️
Me too!
How on earth does that much water get into an engine? Draining that sump was so gross I watched it 3 times... And you got the bugger running! Respect. 🇬🇧👍
Man, that was a lot of water in there. good that you got it to pop off
I've never worked on a car in my life... not something my dad was into, unfortunately. however, I am just a fan of rods and classic cars... I'm subscribed now to watch how you fix things as maybe one day I can get into this hobby!
Hey Thanks!
Couldn't catch it live but I will surly watch it thanks again 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Joe! 👍
4:42 wow the paint was beautiful then. I was 9 or 10 that day!
Very nice video, I'm on the same situation with 42 ford flathead engine in Brasil, parking since 2011 and also was in the flood. I'm learning a lot and thanks to share the video.
I am no mechanic, but I learn a lot watching your videos. Can't wait to see what you do with it.
Thanks Jim! Hey I really appreciate that!
Great job you didn't stop and that is kee and you got her going good job my friend keep on keeping on
Thank You!
Got to love those chevy engines, almost like you can't kill them. Definitely worth rebuilding, nothing that 3 grand won't fix.... lol. I think you win "the most water in an engine award ". Would love to see you put it on the road. Great video Jason!!
Hey Thanks R.I.P!
What a shame for the poor 400 SBC I always wanted to get my hands on a good one.
Great video. It took a lot but it ran. You should finish working on it
Great job, it's a wonder it ran, maybe you should have drained it before trying to turn it, Hope you had a great Christmas and wishing you and your loved ones a great and prosperous New Year
A couple of tarps and you would’ve been golden. Cheap insurance. 😉. Happy 2023 to you and your family, sir!
Totally! Hey Thanks!
You should make a crank pulley "tool" like Mortske made to turn stuck engines.
Try reducing plug gap to .020" and then pulling all he spark plug boots part way off in order to make the spark jump just about a mm from the end of the plug wire to the top of the plug, for some reason, forcing the spark to jump a second gap on the outside makes it fire in the face of fouling on the inside. Weird science thing.
God dam that was a lot of water be cool to see you blat around in this
i enjoy you and your channel.......... the Lord bless you and yours . God bless
Thank You Jim!
We've all had a project or two that we've pushed to the side, fix it and carry on.
Hey Thanks!
I think this would make a good
I think this would make a good project for CZcams to do four or five segments on that rat rod and getting it ready to put on the road Big super fan of your channel like all your videos. Hopefully I’ll do that. Say hello to the family. Thanks.
Hey Thanks Alfred!
Yes the crank pressure is making it leak because it's entirely full of water so you're basically hydrolocking the bottom half of the motor if you get the water out if I turn over easier
I'm blown away on how much was in there!
Sweet lil rat you got there!
It's got the right engine too! (if it survives! LOL)
Get a better grill!
Hey Thanks! Yeah, needs a bit of work still...lol
Yes Jason, you're correct. We have to count the positives. Seeing how this engine was as the beginning of this video, what you found, finally, getting it to run again is huge!!! Be well...
Thank You Howard!
It's trying to fire backwards because the timing is too advanced during crank. I run lots of vacuum advance so I can get an efficient idle without it trying to crank backwards.
Oh man I was sitting here cringing waiting for you to snap that crank bolt 😂🫣
Would love to se the engine rebuilt, and of course that carb... I have a good feeling that you will appreciate the effort to save that 400!! Great vid Jason...
That wrench you used on the drain plug is no bueno...watch that baby flex! Gonna round some bolts with that one
It was handy at the moment...lol
@@CountryBoyGasGarage i hear ya!
Finally a different video!
At least she runs!
See you next time
Thanks!
That must have been completely full Including the valve covers, I've never seen one that full before
Me nether
Man, when you were draining that oil pan, I wasn’t sure if I was watching Country Boy Gas Garage or if I’d sat my big butt on the remote and accidentally switched the TV to Dr. Pimple Popper! 😂 Awesome job getting her running!
🤣 Lol...totally! Thanks!
Ha haha you even got the Mortske fireball!
🔥
AWESOME VIDEO THANKS BROTHER!!!
Thank You Travis !
You better dig in and clean it up some more.
When trying to free engine, change directions 100 times, of course in front, your reverse torque is limited by loosening the bolt, but you can still apply some reverse torque, 100 times over. then go to the ring gear and reverse that 100 times.
Hey. How is it going out there. ? Cant wait whats next😉
my blood pressure was going up as you was tightening that crank pully bolt 😂
Mine too! Lol!
@@CountryBoyGasGarage i did a top end rebuild on my honda varadero not long ago new rings and cam shaft bearings, i was torquing the rocker arms i knew something wasnt right i thought just a little more then i got the dreaded feeling as it felt looser then snapped the bolt, , my own fault for trusting a cheapo torque wrench even though i knew it didnt feel right
@@daz0705 That happened to me doing the clutch swap on the bus. Broke a bolt off in the flywheel!

That air cleaner looks sick.
Thank You!
It runs !!
It Does! Barley...lol
You have the totally awesome CZcams channel keep up the good work my friend 👍 😀 😊
You are welcome my friend 😊
welcome back Happy New year
Happy New Year!
I wished I had that motor for my 84 c10
It's a good one! Well it was...lol
Rebuild a carburetor get the timing and hook up a spare gas tank to it
You got to learn somewhere and what better then learning while building a rat rod because all the mess up's can look like something that ought to be there anyway it's a cool machine it's too bad you allowed it to sit but things happen I know I have done the same thing.
When they've been sitting for a while they get hella thirsty.
Dude that water came out for so long it made me have to pee😂
🤣
Enjoyed the video, was wondering why you don't just clean everything up before trying to start the engine but good to see that it runs so worth rebuilding.
Your channel rocks
Thank You Sherria!
AWSOME try but she barked cleaner up a lil an yeh timer
0:09 JESUS CHRIST 😯😯😯😯😯😯😯😯😯
🔥
I think you are going to have to bottle feed it until you get it to run longer
I should of hooked up the fuel line to see if it would.
I didn't know a chocolate shake worked just like oil !!
Totally! Lol!
You should have drained the water and the sludge (oil) before turning the engine! And filled it up with some new oil!
Mite be a freeze plug
That was a serious amount of water in that engine. Think you won the utube prize. But you live in that climate why you never cover it..I live in Sweden. Same deal. You should send that oil drain viral. People going to watch too the end. 😆 🤣 😂 . Glad I wasn't eating my dinner. Dam.
Thank You! Yeah probably worse I've seen!
Bump the starter
You need a HEI distributor there cheap
I can't believe you left that thing sit so long...
I know....
👍👍
👍👍
I 'd say it's a good thing it didn't start
It started but only ran on the fuel in the carb.
Hi where have you been hope all is well . I know the weather sucks big time . Looking forward to seeing more things from you.
Next time flush it with diesel and motor oil mixture.
You got the motor 44sb to start CBGG. is it rebuild time, or just run-it like it is??
Probably rebuild
Valve train stuck?
Probably was
You fludder lol
That's a beautiful Willys truck
Thanks!
✌🏻
