I will try to be as brief as possible in hopes that someone knows what I am talking about and actually has some decent advice ( I hope )
Well here it goes, I go out and buy this truck and as I remove the valve cover gaskets i find sludge and oil caked onto all the valves. One side is fine, no sludge build up and the other is the worst i have ever seen. What would cause this. I changed the oil pump in hopes that it was poor pressure and still no change. No oil circulates to that left side. One machanic said it could be a slipped main. Is this something that can be fixed or is this engine shot. I believe it is a 351 ford block.
Has anyone ever seen or heard of this. Any help would be appreciated.
thanks in advance, adj
