3406E Corrosion Jake Housing

Good morning ya’ll.

As owning the truck for a few months I decided to open her up to see what we’re dealing with underneath the valve covers. Long story short, I was not happy what was inside seen some corrosion on Jake Housing, some marks/scored on the Rocker Arms/cam ects. This is most likely caused from the previous owner having the rig sit for a year and half before I got it so condensation got In.

Lookin to see if I should be worried more about the corrosion Jakes flaking off onto the parts?

 

The truck was actually sitting in a wet environment when I picked it up. Previous owner had it near a forest in the back of his house and Delaware gets a lot of rain so that can most likely be the cause.

Had it’s first oil/coolant change in September, coolant looked like brown water and smelled like coffee. Oil didn’t look like water just your normal color which i’m surprised, gotta do another oil change since I’m over my interval at the moment and will let u know.

Yes the little circle marks pitted on the Rocker Arms your able to feel them a little bit with your fingernail not the scored ones though.

 

@SmallPackage I'll try to do the best I can, I’m actually ‘restoring’ my engine/truck little by little I know everything is old and it’s getting new parts put into it as I’m building up my funds. This is definitely a full time truck runs locally so less wear and tear on her. I’ll definitely take your word on that, only had one oil change ever since I owned it for the past month, so that’ll definitely help. Thanks boss man for the help!!
