[QUOTE="jeepjoe43, post: 428811, member: 19255"] Hadn't thought about the crap that might be in the oiling system...Sure don't want to be pumping that through the engine! The lifters will be the tell as to how far it's compromised. Had a similar water experience with a motor I pulled out of vehicle and later decided to use in another. It sat outside for just 1 year, but rain got down one of the cylinders and rusted the rings in one of them. Also had to do a valve job for the ones that were closed (of course I did them all), fortunately I was able to just hand lap them. The cylinder that froze did NOT completely clean up after honing, but I put it back together anyway. The block was already bored to the max. This was a high compression (11:1) 2.0 pinto motor I put into my '43 military jeep. About 6 years later she started to smoke a little after the rings on that cylinder got tired. [/QUOTE]
