big caddy

[warponyxlt]

just got a 67 caddy calias coupe for 350 good shape no dents good chrome decent interior every thing is there only problem is the motor is stuck any one know how to loosen a frozen stuck engine i was thinkin atf or fuel oil. the motor is a 429 does that engine have solid lifters. has any one ever see a sbf in one of those cause that is what i got planned for it if the original mill is junk

my father and grand father always swore by useing coke classic in the cylinders and letting it sit i can't remember how long i think it was either 1 day or 1 week. I personally have never done this as I have never messed with a froze engine but I know I've heard of this method before from others.

Mix up 50% type F tranny fluid & 50% acetone in a squirt bottle. Pull the plugs & fill each slug up as much as poss. If that dont break it free nothing will

Buddy of mine had a 68'ish caddy with the 500 in it. Talk about a massive piece of iron.

[ezernut9mm]

yeah, real cool. love the big caddys! i un-froze one with straight diesel in the cylinders and a breakover bar. check the frame for rust at the kick ups behind the front tires. they are famous for that.
i would love to see picks.

some one told me diesel fuel in the cylinders might do it.

[69FLATBED]

Diesel fuel is what i've akways used too.

[Redcap]

Diesel, ATF and a little Aero Kroil mixed. Works like a charm.

I used pb blaster on a old 65 impala 283 it worked fine.

[warponyxlt]

atf and gas mix did the trick took like ten minutes got it to turn and sprayed it all over when i tried the starter there is no plug wires or numbers on the cylinders any one know the cylinder numbering and location of number one on the dist cap. sorry about the off topic subject but the bump still runs and idle hands are the devils work gotta do something fixin cars is my drug. besides there are so many people here that know so much together it is irristible to ask thanks
