[@EXQD2]

We are down for a 30 part motor tear down series!

[@Fix_it_Garage]

That would be fun, but the thought of editing that sounds very very very time consuming haha maybe if I did youtube fill time I'd do something like that

[@Subieflow15]

Great video bro keep it hard🤙🏽

[@Fix_it_Garage]

Thank you I appreciate it!

[@Mrdubomb]

You are better to pull the manifolds and turbo as one unit, not very hard.

[@Fix_it_Garage]

Hey that's some solid advice. I will keep in mind for the next time! Thank you!

Im curious why cant you use an impact to remove head bolts?

[@Fix_it_Garage]

So I was told in my younger years to never break them loose with an impact because you can warp the block or head more. You want to evenly release the tension between the block and cylinder head. I was taught that thats what I've always done. Once I break them loose ill use am impact to remove them

Would changing that oil pickup help prevent this? I was wondering because i have a 2017 wrx with 85k miles on it and I'm hearing a sputtering sound coming from the engine when I drive.?

[@Fix_it_Garage]

So im not awake of the fa motors having issues with there oil pickups breaking like the ej motors. Also sputtering is usually from a misfire which could be worn plugs or something else. Your noise sounds like it's different then this car. I honestly still don't know why this motor blew up the way it did 🤣 I still need to rip the block apart and check the oil gallies
