I got a spare engine with my car. The engine looks nice but the PO drained the oil out and left the sump open. Then he wrapped it in plastic wrap and dropped the engine on the left head so it has a nice crack.
Got myself a new pair of heads that are rebuilt right now. It's going to be a big L-Jet as I don't have the patience to deal with the old D-Jet (although I have all the parts for a D-Jet). I I'm going to make it a 2056cc unless in change my mind and go crazy with a bigger crank (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) I started taking the engine apart and going to document as much as I can. Not my first rebuild but is my first Type4 rebuild so wish me luck! Today I got pistons 3 & 4 out. #3 looks nice, not too much signs of wear. The ring gaps are about 1mm (trash) #4 is also nice but the piston got a small bent while trying to remove the pin. That bent trapped the oil ring. Never mind, I'm going for bigger one anyway. The cylinder registers are nice. In fact, the entire case is very nice and clean. Anyone knows the meaning of the inscriptions on the cylinders and pistons?        |
