Just bought a 62 in Great shape body and interior
P.O. sold it non-running because it lost oil and seized.
Has 197000 on the clock. Crankshaft turns a bit with starter engaged.
Can I drop the pan and replace all main and rod bearings without pulling the engine? Assuming the best... that the crank is only minimally scored and can be dressed out.
Would like to get him running and assess the top end compression rings/valves.
I have read that pulling the 3FE with A440 is a bear!
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Im new to the 62's
My 81 FJ40 build is complete... complete rebuild... lots of help from MUD members! Awsome rig!
