    Hello Mortske and Duff Dog, I had a 78 mercury monarch 302 and had to do the pokey pokey with the Oil, I put the Plug back in and put about a can and a half of Berrymans b-12 chemtool in and started it and let it run about 20 minutes and Holy Shitsky I didn't think it was ever going to stop draining, Pure mud I changed it again a couple weeks later with Berrymans and never had the problem again, drove for a few years with not much problems.

      Count yourself fortunate that it's only deer droppings. My boy Prince had a thing for raccoon poop. He hated 'coons but loved to roll in their crap. That stuff is bloody strong horrible smelling. Mades me gag a little when I bathed him. Same place of course, all up in the side of the head, neck & collar area. Once on a trip to the Columbia River, he found himself a nice little stash of rotten Salmon. We could smell him from 20 feet away. I used gfs strawberry flavored female body wash on him, in the river of course; (no dog shampoo on a camping trip!). He was not getting in the van reeking of rotten fish! After 5 days of camping in that spot, seems like he waited to do this right as we were ready to leave, too.

    One of your best videos yet Mortske! Its almost unbelievable how good that old flat head ran, almost as good as my 2020 Silverado!

    Wow 😳...a non-stuck engine! It also lacked a couple of quarts of water in the crankcase; however, not sure what WAS in the crankcase! Excellent video Mortske...really enjoyed it. Thanks!

    I can't believe the look on your face as you tightened up to torque the engine over and damn near bit the carb when it turned so easy. I have a great story about my first engine, a flat head v8 and how it all ends. You just made my day taking time to make it run. I wish that more of them were that easy to get rolling over.... ford musta had a good day when he rolled this one off the line

    Tiger 131 Spark Plugs were a Wartime plug and have been gone for years. However, W22511 are exact replacements. They are still available from Bosch

      Especially when you pulled the plugs out of the drinkers side and it looked like it was just solid rust inside, honestly can't believe it turned over never mind starting right up and idling

    When I graduated High School in 1973 ( Dont say it!) I went to work at a local TEXICO Full Service Gas Station! As a young Jedi Knuckle Buster. The old boy running the place said " You gotta start at the bottom and work your way up! Which meant everything under the car or truck was mine LOL! It was SOP to drain a quart of old oil out and add a quart of Kerosene and let her idle for about 10 minutes before the oil and filter change. We also never changed the Spark plugs unless the porcelain was cracked. We had the old sandblaster plug cleaner or we used the oxy-Acty number 0 gas welding tip to clean them. We had a Spark plug tester made by AC DELCO and a Distributor Machine too! I never got to use the Distributor Machine but I was told how it worked. I had to be able to snatch the 7/16 flat washer from his hand to prove I was worthy! LOL!
