    This to me looks like it was straight water ran (probably not even distilled) and just years of electrolysis from the dissimilar metals of the housings and irons. This almost certainly would have had a coolant seal failure. I'd definitely want to measure the land between the water jacket and seal groove to make sure there is enough material left. They can sometimes be deceiving there they look sufficiently thick, but are just full of pitting and will crumble at looking at them wrong. For lights I recommend the Snap-On Necklamps, you can wear it around your neck (as the name) or on your head, plus they're super bright.

    There are no freeze plugs in the rotor housings under the lower intake manifold from the factory. The front rotor is blocked by the lower intake and the rear feeds the stock coolant line for the turbo. It is best to install 20mm freeze plugs in both holes. That way you don't heat the lower intake manifold unnecessarily with hot coolant in the rear housing. The top coolant outlet on the rear iron that was plugged (and then broken off) is the preferred spot to use for feeding coolant to the turbo, I wouldn't plug it.

Any carbon left on the rotors wiped off with a paper towel. Maybe a nice machined rotor face could do the same.

  • @scoutsapp5624

    So for good shop lights, just hop on a snapon truck, ask for the specs on the light you like, somehow make it off the truck without buying anything, check the price on that light online and make sure it’s a good price, and you’ll be set. It’s like some brand called streamlight and the snapon guy will give you a lifetime warranty on it. Those lights are friggen tough. One of my coworkers had one run over by a trucks 6 times before it broke. Super bright and grab some rechargeable batteries and you’re set. The little pen light only cost like 40. I know this sounds like an add of some sort but as a mechanic this light was way better than any other autozone light.

    I have a 86 NA sports and its on 87000 km (54k miles) stock untouched motor. It sat for 10-15 years, a year before I brought it and when I had it I only drove it every weekend or so. It ran perfectly no issues but when I first got it the coolant system looked disgusting so I drained it flushed and thought it was good to go. Had the car serviced just so I could get it checked over for any issues I need to address. The following weekend after the service I started it up and let it warm up in the driveway and then when backing out of the driveway there was coolant everywhere (Waterpump leaking from the weep hole) so I replaced the water pump and went to start it and had trouble starting it. Tried a couple basic things and nothing worked so sent it back to the shop to be looked at and that’s when I was told it’s lost comp on both rotors. 25 psi all around and 28 on one face of one of the rotors. This baffled me as from my understanding, for what seemed to be a healthy engine with not even a single issue. To lose comp on both rotors seemingly out of no where is just wrong. But after seeing this video I’m wondering if it’s because it spent most of its life sitting being on only 87000 km (54k miles)I’ve got a couple things I’ve been told I could try to start it but if none work I’m thinking of pulling it out myself and rebuilding it myself as I don’t have much money and learning to build engines especially rotary is my dream. I should note I’ve never done an engine rebuild before so I’ll be taking an extreme amount of time to get it perfectly and educating myself before trying anything. Your videos will be extremely helpful. But yeah if anyone’s got any feedback on any of that it’d be much appreciated as I’ve got no clue what happened and neither does anyone I’ve talked to so far : /

    Rob, for tapered taps the standard rule is 12 turns. They make thread gages for them that have a mark, but 12 turns has never led me wrong.

    I had that same exact boost gauge on my 90 Nissan 300ZX! Love it!
    Just noticed you should probably vent the fuel tank, with out it you could get un-intended rise of tank pressure that can effect pump operation.

    Streamlight makes the best flashlights! The Wedge is a great EDC pocket light, I don't go anywhere without mine. The Strion LED is the best for automotive work--robust, long battery life, and very bright. They have really good warrantees as well.

    Rob, the gunk is a mix of water and old coolant sitting for years. Seen this alot on engines that has sit a long time or been mixing coolant between red and green/blue antifreeze. Also springs on the old engines are crap, esp the corner seals they flatten instant almost :P So do your self a favour and replace all seals and springs with same you would use on and Rew engine. And go 2 piece seals as well and don't go it has to be stock Turbo 2 seals. They suck and can't handle any boost or power at all. Glad you decided to split the engine. My first thought was split the engine as it's been sitting for way way too long. Looking forward to seeing what you will do with this car :)

    Where i work we use headlamps all the time, it looks dumb but after you use it a week you dont want something else. It is something like the ledlenser MH10. Light in the front, 1 elastic band and battery at the back.

  • @THEONLYNIKOMATH
    @THEONLYNIKOMATH Před 2 lety

    My best shop lights honestly are the ones from the local dollar store. They have most of the features of new lights like magnets, hooks, kickstands cob led and led arrays all in one. They are also only a few bucks so if you put them somewhere and hurt them it doesn't matter!

  • @iwanta69rs
    @iwanta69rs Před 2 lety

    my shop light recommendation is rechargable magnetic camera mount led panels (the square or rectangle ones) are the best shop lights ever invented and they were designed for filming but beat any mechanic light i've used...another pro tip use a map gas torch to heat up those press fit nipples before pulling them out will save so much time

    The fittings+orings (at 31:30) you mention being rated to "2000 psi or something" are actually rated to 3000 psi. I make fire suppression systems and the fittings we use look identical to yours, and are pressurized to 3000 psi every time in order to pass DOT spec. Your fittings are comfortable up to 3000 psi at the very minimum

    The coolant passage in the rear iron that you broke off is a lot easier to get out with a screw extractor. When I broke that fitting on my motor I used the screw extractor with a drill and eventually the fitting will grab and start spinning, while it’s spinning pull out and boom it’s out and no damage to the iron
