Full Rebuild- Tips

[mnelsen]

So Ive just completely rebuilt my 4g63t. I mean everything. Pistons, rod and main bearings, every single gasket, etc. What are some things I need to really remember to do? Ie. bleed what lines, cas, tps, prime oil pump, etc? I'm trying to do everything 100%

Thanks, much appreciated.

One thing would be to bleed the lifters if you haven't done so.

isnt that done when priming the oil pump?

No, soak them in oil, and use a paper clip thru the hole to depress them fully.

A little less than $300.
