dooahhdoo Posted January 7, 2007 Posted January 7, 2007 Apparently this guy can remove an Impreza engine with an engine crane and a dremel as his only tools. Has anyone heard of this guy or even better got any pics..........................?
Dave K Posted January 7, 2007 Posted January 7, 2007 Pmsl.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> Starting, I think this is where we made the mistake! One for the ladies, builders ar$e!! I stick it up my nose? Yes thats right Nick. Chop Chop!!! I haven’t got sparkly things in my engine bay............. Took all of 10mins......... The 600bhp 2.5 with twisted turbo and FMIC goes in tomorrow. Honest.
cupradave Posted January 7, 2007 Posted January 7, 2007 LMAO [] 10 mins with a dremel, where is Norris McWhirter and Roy Castle when you need them?
dooahhdoo Posted January 13, 2007 Author Posted January 13, 2007 More pics to follow tomorrow. Cam covers off and finally removed the cam pulley wheels after my boss made a special tool for me Managed to break a couple of wheels in the process but omelettes and eggs spring to mind. Shopping list so far is :- Clutch kit 2 X cam pulleys cam belt Jeans belt [] Hydraulic followers tested + cleaned I expect this list will get quite a bit bigger tomorrow
graeme_stuart Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 Cam belt Nick?? You need a belt for your jeans [].
Dave K Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 PM back.[] Nick you want rest of the pics posting?
dooahhdoo Posted January 24, 2007 Author Posted January 24, 2007 Yes please dude [] New block will be here Monday morning all being well.
Cret Posted January 24, 2007 Posted January 24, 2007 Didn't realise you were having your motor out too Nick dude! [] Give us a shout if you chaps need a hand at all.
Dave K Posted February 27, 2007 Posted February 27, 2007 Sorry for delay Nick, your other pics; No.3 the oily one surprise surprise. not; Cambelt off; The lovely big score down No.3 bore. Where the previous builder didn’t put the rear c clip on the piston, which resulted in the gudgeon pin being dragged up and down the bore;<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> End result one block that cant be rebored.
Cret Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 Yoinks! Can't believe that someone would miss out sticking the clip in! That's very worrying. []
Dave K Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 Indeed Jim, hate to think what may have happened if the pin had got stuck in the access hole!
