So far the 182-T DP has turned out to be great, the carb barrels were stuck, (castor glued), left cylinder exhaust valve hung on closing but popped closed after a slight delay, it never disengaged the push rod. Again fixed with a shot of Corrosion X. Judging by the cam followers it has been run very little. Both cylinders have very good compression It came with four Fox Miracle plugs in it and they were way beyond tite, they scared me they were so tight. I'll pull the left cylinder today and inspect the left cam and lifters. The rods are still zero visible slop, the right rings was coal black on the edge. No rust. The carbs are metered with clean metering slots and passages.
