About this time last year I had a problem with my 2.0.
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...c=51716&hl= Lately I started working on this motor. It is unbelievable all the problems I have found. First I found Bus pistons and .063 in shims giving me a very low CR. I decided to check my valve guides. I borrowed a compressor from Glenn Stazak and removed the valves. I found my problem with cylinder 3. Intake seat totally loose. I also found cracks. I thought they were repaired (back in 88). The shop only installed heli-coils in the spark plug holes. No welding. I started what I had hoped to be a reseal job. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Attached image(s) |
