Just about to drop the motor and trans on a '74 2.0L to rebuild the motor, and will be posting questions along the way. Thanks in advance for all who reply.
First things first. What advice do you have for cleaning the outside of the motor and trans? Any chemicals I should use or avoid? What prep work do I need to do first (eg, to protect sensitive parts)? Thanks. |

Again, its like sitting in a class and I still need to take the pre-requisite courses!!! But I'm taking notes.
Since we are in this guys engine, can I ask a question? What would cause an intake valve to bend/brake??? Just wondering in order to start some sort of preventive thinking right now. My last 914 1.7 had an intake valve (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) pop/break/bend, and I would like to work to avoid this type of thing in the future. I'll be taking apart that engine in order to learn as much as possible, but until then, are their preventive measures? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |
