Gents,
Getting back some "free" time to actually do some work to the car after about a year and a half, and am going to start by fixing the oil leak(s) the car has. I have removed the old heat exchangers as I will be putting on some stainless ones. My current project is attempting to replace the pushrod tube seals. I know there are many threads, but I have a specific question regarding the 1.7L engines. I was reading that there may be an "early" bore size and a "late" bore size. So this has me a bit confused now, and I don't want to order new seals until I can confirm which ones I need. Also, I'm a little confused on whether I need to do all that TDC stuff when removing all the rockers/valves. I've never messed with the valves before or done an adjustment (still a "noob"). I do plan to do a valve adjustment after everything is put back together, but wanted to know if I needed to do anything special during removal, or if I could just go to town on removing everything. ps: anyone want to show a noob how to do a valve adjustment? I pay with beer (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) Thanks! |
