One Aztec engine with a chrome rebuild reached 27 hours and was still

GM's solution in the early sixties Chevys was to tell the dealer to pour
BonAmi in the carburetor.


I have heard of this one but would be reluctant to try it.

IMHO, that solution would be "the gift that keeps on giving," as it
would be difficult to get rid of the BonAmi once the rings have seated.

BonAmi is, essentially, powdered pumice, which is abrasive and WILL get
into the oil! Expect reduced bearing life from this procedure.
