I am enbarking on an engine rebuild - doing a RAT 2270.
I've been taking detailed pictures and posting them here. So far I've take it all apart. Now I'm doing lots of cleaning and ordering parts (and waiting for them to show up). Enjoy! teaser: Attached image(s) ![]() |

Most detailed "how to" i have ever seen, thanks.
I don't think you mentioned your bearing clearances though. I'm in the process of rebuilding a 1.8 and have no idea what the spec should be. |

Most detailed "how to" i have ever seen, thanks. I don't think you mentioned your bearing clearances though. I'm in the process of rebuilding a 1.8 and have no idea what the spec should be. I did not use plasti-gauge or anything. But I did measure the thickness of the old and new bearings with a dial caliper, and they were essentially identical. And, after assembling each component, the "feel" of the play and drag "felt" about right. Hope that helps! |
