    Clint hightower, I was actually giving up on my 5a engine I'm only 26 i love my Toyota Corolla, and i dont want to sell it i want to keep it as long as life last because its a reliable vehicle, but after watching this video you inspired me tbh. My 5a engine burnt headgasket the other night while driving home so i just got the engine overaul at the same time, it was burning the oil badly in compression out of compression, cost me a lot because I use a lot of compression tbh.

    Letting the silicone cure a little before tightening is great for maybe a diff cover but precision mating surfaces typically require you to assemble and torque within 5 minutes. And you don’t have to use so much silicone because the surfaces are so precise 90% of the silicone will squeeze out externally and internally and sometimes break free and suck up onto the oil sump. As long as you prep the surface well you will have an excellent seal

    Oh god, despite how weird this sounds, the engine sounds sooo attractive at the end. I have a 93 Corolla DX, which runs the same engine, and I plan on doing a rebuild in the future. 218k and still running great. Great acceleration after all these miles and still gives me butterflies in my stomach when I drive it a little mean through town. I wonder how ferocious it will sound after a much needed rebuild.
    Thank you so much for putting this information out here. I also love your combination of professional and backyard tactics, such as the diction you use to explain everything, yet the little things like the bungie cord holding the timing belt. Made my night. Cheers!

    I WOULD RECOMMEND, KEEPING THE RODS IN ORDER & INSTALL THEM ONTO THE NEW PISTONS IN THE SAME DIRECTION BUT, THE MOST IMPORTANT PART IS, THE SECOND U HEAT & EXTRACT THE WRIST PIN, I WOULD IMMIDIATLY PRESS THE NEW WRIST PIN N2 ITS NEW PISTON & THE ROD, WHILE THE ROD IS STILL HOT SO, YOU DONT HAVE TO HEAT IT TWICE!!! IT WEAKENS THE METAL & FATIGUES IT!!! CAREFULL NOT TO OVERHEAT THE ROD! IF IT GETS CHERRY RED HOT, ITS OVERHEATED! SO THE SECOND YOU REMOVE THE WRIST PIN, GET THE ROD INTO IT'S NEW PISTON & PRESS THE NEW WRIST PIN INTO PLACE & THERE ARE ALLIGNMENT TIPS FOR THE WRIST PINS AS WELL. STILL, ALL IN ALL, GREAT VIDEO!!! TEACHING & SPREADING KNOWLEDGE & SELF SUFFICIENCY!

  • @docholladay5648
    @docholladay5648 Před 8 měsíci

    Awesome video. It really helped me through my build. I do have a couple things though: first, the “installation marks” you used are actually the timing marks. The installation marks are actually the other dots on the gears. (I have the shop manual but prefer to watch how it’s done in lieu of reading about it.) Secondly, personal opinion, take it as that, don’t turn the crank backwards, especially when setting timing. You always want to go in the direction of engine rotation. Otherwise, I loved it. It helped me a lot.

    Good job, one tip when installing oil pan, if you buy a couple longer bolts cut the heads off them then use them as alignment pins for oil pan. Helps to keep from gasket sealer all over other bolt holes. When you have a couple of oil pan bolts installed, remove them, finish installation

    Great info Clint! Thanks for sharing it all; question, I know you said there's a specific orientation for the compression rings on the piston which are sometimes marked (which side is top/bottom), but what about the oil ring & the 2 thin ones on either side of the oil ring? They don't also have a top/bottom side?

    Excellent video. I can see that you removed the longitudinal brace that runs from the radiator back to the sub-frame cross member where it is attached at the rear trans/engine mount. Is there a way to remove the longitudinal brace without dropping the entire cross member? It makes access to the driver's side of the upper oil pan section much easier. Thank you.

    Best video for 7AGE. Just bought a 7AGE 1.8L Celica with 300,000K miles on it for $1500.00... =D The engine still sound like it even at that kind of mileage... But it does eat oil a bit. Lady I bought it from have put Penn High Mileage 5W30. The cap ask for 10W30. I will change it to Val 10W30 high mileage later and if 10W40 is needed. I can't say anything bad for the 7AGE motor so far. Run good and pick up speed very well with out any hesitating. Very smooth but the engine get noisy pass 3K RPM at 65 MPH... Right now I need to change the thermostat on it due to the temp. reading. Seem like there no thermostat in it or seem stuck open... =D

      +mongyaj Sounds like you got a good engine. Oil consumption on these cars is usually the valve seals. If you are not ready to do the valve seals, put some AT-205 reseal in it available on Amazon, it really works if there is enough seal material left. I've done some personal testing of it and it works well. give it about 6 weeks and you should see less oil consumption and or smoke.

      +Engineerboy 100 Too many people try to put a price on knowledge like this rather than pass it on. This was a totally in depth tutorial....even to the point of buying junk yard parts to show what you blocked with your back after you reviewed the video. Awesome job, don't let the haters get you down. Keep up the good work...my experience is only in SBChevy and when I searched to consider rebuilding my sons 7afe I came across this. It's nice to see someone passing experience along, Thanks again.

    I see you did this in the car without removing the crankshaft from the block. I would like to see a full overhaul with the engine out, the placing of the main caps, the orientation of the pistons, the torques and sequences of the main bearings, etc. It seems no one else has created such a video on CZcams either. I work on the '90 era Toyotas - the ones that get 30+ mpg without the blizzard of computer tricks and sensors that so easily fail on the newer ones.

  • @Engineerboy100
    @Engineerboy100  Před 7 lety +9

    For cars that have an oil dipstick, I have been thinking about designing an oil changer pump that will be like nothing else on the planet and will have the following features:
    1. Of course you will not have to jack up the car as the oil will be extracted through dipstick hole.
    2. Unlike other extractors on the market , this unit will not require
    a. An air compressor to operate
    b. Manual pumping to create suction
    c. The user to dump the oil, it is pumped directly into the recycle container
    3. This unit is very small and easy to handle
    4. Made in USA of machined aluminum NOT plastic
    5. Can extract warm oil in 2-5 minutes depending on vehicle capacity
    6. Does not require a battery, operates on your car’s 12 volt battery
    7. Costs less than some people pay for an oil change
    8. Anyone can easily use it from teens to non-mechanical persons to the elderly
    9. Allows you to change your oil without jacking up your car in as little as 5 minutes.
    10. Looks Awesome I billet aluminum or anodized blue
    Would you be interested in such a device? If enough people are interested I will engineer one like nothing currently in existence. Let me know.

    • @datboidominican
      @datboidominican Před 7 lety +1

      Clint Hightower as very interested I am in that invention..I feel like once you invent it, it wont be as fun to change the oil but then again, it would make it easier and more simpler for youngsters-mechanics to use as you had informed. Then again, as it is a device, of course we'd have the option of getting it or not for our car so it would be really cool for people I think. I know my neices and sister would definitely do it themselves if you designed it.

      @hotrodvdub Před 5 lety

      Not all vehicles have an easy access oil filter like this corolla. You’ll still have to jack up the car to change the oil filter. And if I’m jacking up the car might as well remove the drain plug to get a complete oil draining.

  • @jacquespoirier9071
    @jacquespoirier9071 Před 8 lety +2

    an in situ job is the best way to spoil the result.
    one of the key to a successful job is the cleaniness of all the component involved in an engine rebuilding an an accurate measurement of all wear surfaces.
    plus in a transverse engine, seals are more subject to catch road debris as dirt and ropes and start leaking almost as soon you return the engine in service.
    I had to reopen an engine for a leaking head gasket caused by a debris entrapped between the head gasket and the head.
    I also had to accept a comeback because honing dust shot one main bearing
    now, never I do an in situ job more involved than removing a head or an oil pan, never on the reciprocating components

    • @wagonkit
      @wagonkit Před 9 lety +1

      Engineerboy100 you use the 22lbs then 90+90 method? I keep reading conflicting info on Torque to Yield bolts.

    • @Engineerboy100
      @Engineerboy100  Před 9 lety +2

      Caleb Sandersier Yep have for years, works great and never had a problem. I torque to 22 ft-lbs with torque wrench then do two 90 degree additional turns. My final 90 degree verys as I use the actual 90 as a reference combined with matching how tight the bolt feels with the "stretch" feel I get so they all match.

    • @ModMINI
      @ModMINI Před 8 lety +1

      +Engineerboy 100 Exactly. Don't ever rely 100% on a torque value. Always use your brain and stop tightening if something feels like you're going too far! I have had people on my channel comment that they broke bolts (head bolts or cam sprocket bolts!!!) because they misunderstood the directions. Don't be blinded by the instructions! :-)

    • @wagonkit
      @wagonkit Před 8 lety +1

      I bought new bolts. Whole set was only 18 bucks. When comparing new and old bolts, my old ones were longer by about 1-2 threads. Stretched. Perhaps because I used an MLS gasket, the new TTY bolts were required. All I know is, car is still running about 5,000 miles on it since new HG. Check my vid if you haven't seen it..
