Going slightly OT...

...reminds me of a '70 Ford F100 pickup I had a few years ago. Someone had
swapped in a big block V8. When I got it, one cylinder was dead and one was
dying. Actually ran on five cylinders before I finally pulled the engine to
replace it.

My first Roadster came that way. Ran okayish but sluggish. Turned out the
entire side of a piston had been melted off. Not pretty once I tore it
down...
