My 54 Fargo PW runs great on 3cyl.(1,2,4) but oil fouls on the other 3cyl (3,5,6) Is this characteristic of them? Does the Dodge flathead have a "heat" problem that causes some cylinders to wear faster than others? The truck has 27k indicated miles, and 30psi oil pres at idle, but has been sitting for a few years. Don't want to tear it appart just yet, so I'm looking for ideas and possible known causes/problems. Thanks J.V.L.
