Good morning gentlemen, have a question on moving a tuna can from one 2.0l case to another. It appears that it all should just transfer over if it is a good quality assembly, right? The 2.0L turbo engine I removed has one, the 2.0L engine I installed does not.
And yes, I will make sure there is no actual tuna in the can first. Thanks! |

QUOTE(falcor75 @ Jan 23 2020, 08:25 AM)  Dont overtighten it when you put it back! IMHO every 914 or any T4 owner should have an inch pound torque wrench. The oil sump plate is 9 ft/lbs which is 108 inch/lbs...not a pound more. I also work on 996/7 engines, lots of M6 bolts in alunimum, 7.5 Ft/lbs, no inch pound torque wrench and you'll be heli-coiling a lot of holes. On 914 every engine I build I helicoil the taco plate bolt holes. I've had to replace a few cases due to over torquing the sump plate resulting in a broken bolt boss, including one on a customers brand new performance engine. |
