Correct! Also the battery in the car was long since dead, plus it was little bitty. The glow plugs were inop, the car hadn't been started in over a year, and all I was using for battery was one of those portable boosters, so engine wasn't spinning near fast enough. But it was spinning.
Trust me, there are 6 intake tubes there, and you can a bit more easily see the 6 exhaust tubes.
Car only had about 124K on it. I didn't look at head #, but you can bet is was original....
The car itself has absolutely no redeeming quality what-so-ever, it is purely drivetrain.....
