theres 2 basic o-rings you should replace every so often through use of taking off / putting on, the o rings on the injectors themselves along with the seals that insert into the intake manifold are special and should be oem & matched to the injector type...also highly recommend silicone spray...
i was told i can use my vaccum gauge to measure the blow by ; can I? wouldnt this bad to do if the breather port is always exhausting out? any idea of what readings im looking for? should be positive pressure in this case, why im wondering vs the normal vaccum its supposed to have aka negative...
theres been alot done with this n/t sohc engine right as it comes out from the factory, i found it to be most cost effective to have the head rebuilt at the local machine shop, was also curious to see how it'd preform owning a 6 bolt swap on my last build...ANYWAYS, it was already looked into...
ill try to make this short as i can with detail. what i have is a 2.4 sohc 4g64 n/t engine that is now been rebuilt and turbo'd, me and my cousin (cousin for the most part) did the block entirely, cleaning, new bearings and oem piston rings, got the pistons and everything looking new. gapped the...
okay everyone so I've had the engine out since this thread to do a clutch job and a few other things related to the clutch as well, but with everything out I pulled all the timing covers and looked at the marks and they all line up perfect just as i left it...double checked the actual in car...
guys ive read all over jacks site about the ball, everything hes talking about is specifically for 2.0 4g63 transmissions, what i have is the 2.4 4g64 engine & transmission. im not sure how many differences there between the 2 transmissions but theres nothing behind the fork! i see a few...
thanks theres nothing back there though. car was driven with no engagement/disengagement issues but clutch started slipping but its the same one from the factory so here i am replacing the clutch. wouldnt the car not go into gear if it wasnt in place/broken off? old pressure plate looked like it...
okay guys well i have the transmission off this 4g64 as im replacing the clutch, i cant see a pivot ball anywhere at all in this bell housing, or behind the fork, is there a chance it doesnt have one? or is it more likely broken off? i didnt have any shifting issues prior to removal. would this...
Okay so i forgot to come back and update that this issue was resolved, I thought i posted it up. it was an interesting combination of issues at once, first to start off I was trying to use a 2GA 95 eprom ecu in a 2GB 99 eclipse spyder, which you can do but you have to switch the firing order to...
thanks for all the support guys, luckily for me a friend I know is going to let me use his leak down tester this coming saturday, I'll first get all the timing covers off and line up all the marks, hopefully something will actually be off. regardless, going to check all the cylinders just to get...
going to switch to synthetic posssibly on next oil change, engine was still breaking in, you want to break in with conventional from what ive read.BogusSVO - is it possible the low vaccum at idle and having blow by out the breather are connected to eachother? when i spray brake cleaner around...
okay everyone, im still not sure what to think. i have not gotten around to fully taking the timing covers off to see the crank sprocket, but I took the upper cover off and with the cam lines up, the crank pullley appeared to line up on the marks on the cover, not truly %100 what it was since...
id like to think this engine is brimen in; ive put boost on the rings from the very start, and this issye has also been present from the start, i have 1500+ miles betweenn 3 oil xhanges using only conventional 10w30, and stock cam and internals, along with all new oem timing components, timing...
i may very well do, but i think i have alot bigger issues with this excess blow-by. i rechecked and i have air coming OUT the fill cap now, along with the port that the pcv plugs into. looking into a leakdown test. any thoughts or pointers anyone? im upset because the engine was just rebuilt..
