About a month ago I had made a post talking about how my car had sat for 2 years and I went to drain the radiator as the starting of getting my 3.8 Bird running again. Well when I drained the radiator it was clumped with rust, lots of it.
Well, upon tearing down the engine and seeing what is going to need to be replaced, I removed the water pump only to find a lot of rust just sitting back there, so I'm thinking that it's all over the place on the internals and now I'm just plain worried about the level of health my engine is in.
What all should I remove/replace to get rid of all this rust?
What does everyone else do to get rid of rust inside their engines(if it ever gets there)?
Basically, what are my options so that I can let the wife know how much money I'm spending.
