So did you figure out where it puked the oil from?

spldart · 03-13-2017, 10:43 AM

head gasket wasnt blown out but it was wet with oil.
didn't find a crack in the head.
cleaned head up pretty good.
Hoping it was just the head gasket.

pissed off at mysellf that I didn't get picture of new piston in the new cylinder and I didn't get a pic of the cleaned up head combustion chamber..
But but the new episode of Walking Dead was coming on in an hour!

Motor will get it first start on tuesday or wednesday.
Only problem I found with the kit I bought from china was the compression ring for the oil control ring groove. It was buggered slightly in a small area so I had to straiten it a little bit.
Otherwise the kit fit very well.

Good to hear things are looking up. It could have been worse.

Can't miss the Walking Dead! I'm hooked. Daryl would be proud of you.

Started first try.

Are all the strange noises gone

spldart · 03-14-2017, 05:28 PM

Nope.
She failed test drive.
Making what sounds kinda like a light rod knock or broken ring sound.
Noise starts at 2500 rpm and continues up.
However Idle sounds perfect.
Compression good, engine didn't sieze.
Even ran to Orielly's with it rattling away.
I guess I tear it down again tomorrow.
