My wife took the "Super" out of town to deliver some carpet for here brother( She drives it about 3 times a year) and apparently I had neglected the radiator level and oil level for a day too long. I only drive it about 4 miles total a day and it never even gets a chance to warm up but today it did!
Everything was going good but the temp gauge she said rose very fast and then there was the burning smell and the smoke! She kept going...until the 350 finally said no more and shut itself down. She managed to put out the surface fires with Pepsi before the fire trucks (2 and an ambulance) arrived. Well all is well and the tow truck driver got his $70, no one was hurt and she's back home in the driveway. The block is cracked apparently. The oil was nicely thick and burned! Got her filled back up but once I got it running on 5 or so cylinders the water started pouring out from an unlocated area, oh well, never liked that motor anyway! Happy Sunday! P.S. Anything more boring than dropping a 307 in this baby? I think not.
