Hey all,
One thing I noticed that differed heavily from the old powertorque mustang I am working on, and my tornado is carbon deposits in the exhaust outlet.
The mustang has bricks of the stuff (and I am guessing it will be the same when I rip off the head soon too), and it is as hard as a rock. While the Tornado has virtually nothing at all.
I am assuming this is down to the cruder oil used, and the greater amounts of this oil that was in the mix in days gone by, vs the newer semi synth stuff I have always used in the tornado.
That being said, should I bother trying to remove the carbon on the mustang? Or just let time, 98 octane and better oil work its magic through use? It doesn't appear to be having any detrimental effect (that I know of) for running.
