Oh my! I really wish I could find a way to eliminate all this sludge on my 227,000+ stocker valve-covered heads. The last time the stock covers were off, my Durango was in production in early 2000, over 11 years ago.

:cheesy:

It's clear that your lack of proper maintenance is wreaking havoc on that motor!
Since last time you gave us each a piece of your old hood, maybe you could give us each some sludge in a small vial?

Horrible isn't it?! It's a certain shame that you can clearly read the casting marks in there, they should have been totally sheered off by now. Maybe that comes at 228,000 miles? :cool:

Very small vials I think.

If that's not a clear enough argument for proper maintenance of your vehicle, I don't know what is.

Hey Indy, I have to go to one of our plants in a few months for some network upgrades and I intend to drive instead of fly. If I do, it'll take me right through Indianapolis and I'd like to see that D in person.

Which corner, wow that's horrible, I'm surprised that beater still runs!
LOL

If my engine looked like that, I'd yank it and put in a new one. The way you mis-treat an engine should be against the law.

Geez, if Indy's engine looks that bad, you can just imagine what the blinker fluid, muffler bearings, and canudder valve look like! :D :D :D
