Re: 79 350 overhaul

Excess fuel doesn’t rust rings in to place. It washes the oil off the walls and causes piston or wall scuffing. And it’s not bore selective. It’ll wash all the cylinders. Musta been some water.
Easy to check a leaking fuel pump. It doesn’t pump fuel like it should. Just a pinhole in the diaphragm will reduce the pump output and still push fuel into the crankcase.

Educate me!
What’s a pintle in the carb?
