The more I learn the dumber i think I am  Group: Members Posts: 357 Joined: 10-August 04 From: Denver, Colorado Member No.: 2,505 Region Association: Rocky Mountains  |
I have a 2.0 engine I was told is in good condition, but I have to make sure. If i'm going to open it anyway, what parts would I need to get and what things should I look for? I really don't want to modify this engine. Just make it tighter.
I am building another engine from scratch also, head work, bored and stroked, new cylinder bolts, valve train etc, etc. It's so expensive it's taking too long. I need to drive this car soon. So I want to put the older 2.0 in it ASAP. Who's been there and what is the best way out? Rings for sure. What else. Joe (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif) |

I was in a similar situation this summer, here is a link to a thread I started regarding my 2.0 cleanup. It has some advice that people here have given me along the way. I'm still not done with it but have put it on hold while I do a little engine bay rust repair.

Fire the puppy up and then do a compression test...if it runs fix the pushrod tube and main seal leaks...
Then start collecting all the stuff for your stroker!! |

Do a compression check and replace the tube seals and front and rear crank seals. What will you do with the motor when the other is done?

So, your plan is to just throw money in every direction, huh?
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) I'd just drive something else until someone like Jake, or maybe Jake made a motor for me, I used to think just any old fool would do, but I am pretty sure I'd just have Jake build one. M |
