It's time for my first rust repair project.
Thankfully I got lucky when I got lucky when I bought my car, it doesn't have a lot of rust, just a couple of spots. I am going to tackle the worst first so I can get the refreshed 2.0 in. Here is a photo of the spot. It is foward of the batt. tray and right in the lower front corner of the engine bay. I removed a funky metal patch that the previous owner had riveted and thrown some kind of gunk on to seal it up, How much more should I cut away? and then ...

Trekkor can you email your templates? That would be great.
I don't think I am going to do any sand blasting, have enough to do as it is. Think I'll just do some sanding with the grinder. Yes Larry this was going to be a pull the engine, clean the engine bay up a little then put the engine back in. Then I picked up a 2L andd cleaned it up and put new rings in. Then I found what some previous owner had done to fix this hole and couldn't leave it. it'll have to stop at some point, guess I'll know when I get there. Sean |
