  • ok but the title says "How to Diagnose and Repair a Cracked Cylinder Head : Cracked Cylinder Repair: The Engine Block"

    I did not see where you went over how to do either. Did I miss something?

  • Yeah, because Ford never made 2 blocks the same?! Whats so special about that block? By the looks of the roller valve train it seems like a late model Windsor that are still pretty much a dime a dozen. I would understand going through the trouble of sleeving it if your dealing with a Boss 429 or a 427 side oiler. But a Windsor? Buy a block in a box from Ford, transfer the parts over, and call it a day!

  • WOW that was informative!

  • I would not be suprised the day I click one of these village vids for an automotive "how to" & get instruction on changing a Swiffer pad..

  • except sleeves only work for cracked blocks where the crack hasnt expanded all the way up and down the cylinder wall

    also to 03030303 its common to mistake a cracked block for a cracked head because theres no way to tell until you take it apart

  • Hi, I'm Doug. I have my hands in my pockets so I can keep playing with my self when the other 20 great guys, errr, gays, I work with aren't doing it for me. My butt plug that I have sewn into my underwear is not in deep enough. I am a 2 minute video whore who puts out useless videos for AmateurVillage.

  • Hell FUCKING yeah!

  • Indeed they offer only a tip but never the solution in one vid.

    So I can agree absolutely

    1 stares/bored insufficient material.

  • ExpertVillage...Your the biggest spammer on youtube...every video you post is less then 2 minutes and always incomplete...i will never subscribe to ya...your here on youtube to promote your website at youtubes expense...i hope you get kicked off youtube...Ed.

  • i wonder why they did not put bubble gum on the crack and put it back together and then make 32 2 min videos about it

  • JB WELD!

  • I want to be a mechanic and im not that skilled im beginner ive read books and im going to get an engine to work on but are you saying that this is easy what book s did you get anyway on these vehicles it would be appreciated if you tell me
