My self, I have removed the engine motor mount lower nuts, used a 2x4 with a v notch to put on the crank pulley to push up the engine...

    FZJ80 Rough Idle / Misfire P0300, P0303 & P0304

    The only way to truly tell how much of a ridge is on the cylinder wall is to clean the carbon off the cylinder wall(as well as the piston). This to me is part of HG job, and always has been. What is this talk about if the piston rings were replaced or not?? he bring that up? I clean the...

    Whelp, finally blew the head gasket....what's on my todo list?

    Well first off, I would wonder why the head gasket failed after 50K miles. Not common. Lots of good recommendations from the posters above. There had to be an issue you did not see or recognize when the first head gasket was changed. From what I am reading, you want to just get it up and...

    Introduce Yourself

    Yes, was in a rental house while we were getting the house built off 168th. Our new house is close to that rental. It is a shame that access to the forest is closed at the end of 168th now. Even taking the dogs for a walk is more difficult.

    possible purchase. Info and education needed

    First what I would do. Pull the spark plugs and run a bore scope into the bores(worth it really to borrow or buy if you do not have one). To see if any Coolant(coolant is more than just water) is on top of the pistons. if some coolant, then pull the engine and rebuild. To me, not worth pulling...

    Mechanic Fixed Head Gasket, At Completion Tells Me I May Require Engine Rebuild

    Well sorry to hear this story. But is one I have heard many times. Before I ever remove the head on a head gasket job, I do a compression test first. While the spark plugs are out I inspect with a Bore scope. This does not take too long and can tell me tons of info about the engine. I...

    Dr Gil 1FZ-FE rebuild

    Jacob got a ahold of me. In looking at these photo's, IMHO this will need a full rebuild. Your rod and main bearings show signs of coolant in the oil(the pitting, you may not feel it, but that is not good), Also some of them ran with no oil at one point(bright shiny marking), the bearing hit...
