I decided to pop open the case on my 2.0 /4 to replace the cam with a more aggressive one and also to open up some of the passanges for the HD oil pump.
I found the cam bearings to be not in the best shape. Supposedly the motor only had 10k miles on it before I took possesion of it. I do know the motor sat for at least a year before I got it. Attached image(s) |
