Mark 6s are tough engines to work on, for their size. They usually end up needing a LOT of work, too. They are very needy, because In the span of their lives, they are not likely to run into an owner or mechanic who has the time and patience to really make them right. So congratulations. You just graduated from an advanced course in mechanical patience and should be proud of yourself. They really ARE nice running engines, once you’ve flogged them for enough time.
Long live American manufacturing!
