SO, engine was still running well, but my #3 intake kept tightening up on me. smog ports in the heads were stripped. figured i'd pull the engine and see what's up. first time opening up a Type IV. hoping that i'd just need a valve job...
okay, first surprise: the jugs measure 96mm across. guess i wasn't in Bp afterall. second surprise: there's a bunch of melted shit all over #3 piston (and a little over the rest of them). What the hell is this? pin holes in the middle of 3 out of 4 pistons. cylinders look okay. #3 intake push rod has a weird gash in it. ANY comments welcome. specifically, what is that junk in #3? #3 and #4 heads (IMG:http://www.stanford.edu/~neb/enginepics/#3%20and%20#4.JPG) #3 piston (IMG:http://www.stanford.edu/~neb/enginepics/#3.JPG) #4 piston (sorry, andy-esque) (IMG:http://www.stanford.edu/~neb/enginepics/#4.JPG) # 2 and #1 heads (IMG:http://www.stanford.edu/~neb/enginepics/#1%20and%20#2.JPG) #2 and #1 cylinders (IMG:http://www.stanford.edu/~neb/enginepics/#1#2cyl.JPG) |
