Please view the post in the Forum Support forum, it has a poll about making a dark mode (i.e. dark color screens instead of bright white) available. This can be of interest for those that access the forums from a mobile device as dark screens use less battery power. But we need to know whether enough people want this before investing the time to install an extra mode.

Good thing the cylinders were greased before sitting 40years with no cylinder head.
I thought the engine was seized.
After a good cleaning with degreasers i was surprised the engine actually turned over with a hand crank :)
I was told the car was parked because it was burning oil, after cleaning the tops of the pistons, I found that 3 of them have chipped around the top ring.

Looking for 3 pistons.

The cylinder bore look good
