I have a couple of complete 2.0 motors in my garage that I would like start-up in my garage but out of the car. I can do a leak down test on both of them and do a compression test, but I would also like to see how the run, adjust valves, timing, before I install one of them. They are both FI motors.
Any tips or advice? Attached image(s) |

I believe that in order to use the FI out of the car you'll need to have the relay board (opposite side of the engine compartment from the battery tray area) out of the car as well.
I'm interested to see how this works out for you as I'd like to be able to "bench test" my soon to be freshly rebuilt engine before install... -pt |
