  • In this episode, we rebuild the MX5 engine and get it back in the car. Unfortunately, when we fired it up disaster struck!
    A massive thank you to Mazda NZ, Repco Kelston, Nappa New Lynn, and Tune Technic for all of their help with this project!

    That harmonic balancer bolt is TTY and requires alot or torque to tighten the degree setting... Same as the ford 1.5s no key way on crank uses clamping force to hold timing in place

      Cheers mate. Will replace it this time and make bloody sure it won't come loose!

    That’s unfortunate! Keep at it though! Always worth it in the end

    Really tough result - we will get it running again though! All for the learning - onwards in 2023!

    Well it didn’t sound good when it was running

      That's just what the camera picked up. Actually sounded fine in person. Little bit noisy but normal for a fresh rebuild first start
