Thing u should do while engine is out??

Can anyone please tell me what thing u should fixed up while the engine is out. so save money in long run??

can you do a sevicing to turbos???

 

Try doing a search...

Yes you can have turbo's serviced/rebuilt. Good idea to replace seals, and gaskets while engine is out... For example, rear main seal, turbo/manifold gaskets etc...
There is PLENTY more you can do while engine is out, but I don't have time to list them all

 

100K service is much easier to do on an engine stand if it's not already done. Replace every water hose and do the under plenum bypass, rear main seal as already mentioned. If cam covers are leaking, great time to do this also. Knock sensor and harness should be replaced also as it can be done with engine out and plenum in situ but not the other way around.

 

Thanks guys. Will do that

I have done 100k service already.

any more suggestions??

 

When the engine's out,

it's time to get more bling in?

lol :bash: :banned:

 

i was thinking of that but let see if my tight credited budget allows me to it

 

Paint the engine bay.
Heater core.
Plenum powdercoat/polish.
Bling bling bling.

 

Can't replace heater core any easier...

with the engine out, but it is a good idea to replace the two heater core hoses at the fire wall.

 

wiring harness for sure

and detenation sensor if intending on keeping it in the stock location!
also i remember your oxygen sensors werent reading right making the car run rich,would be a good idea to replace those while the motors out....

 

Replace all hydrolic pressure and return lines for the powersteering, replace the PS rack bushes,
replace the 2 heater hoses at the fire wall, renew turbo water cooling hoses, check and
if necesary replace engine mounts, check turbo actuators and if in doubt replace,
check and straighten the fins on the AC condenser, replace the rear main seal,
check the battery tray for erosion, check clean or replace the IAA valve, check the
clutch master cylinder, check the steering column uni-joint for play, etc.

 

PCVs

 

stearing rack bushes. engine mounts. big turbos. replace all hoses, change harness

 

Thanks alot guys. I will try to do as much as i can.

Any ideas of these part prices??

 

lol big turbos

typical simmo spec response :biggrin: lol

 

cost depends how far you want to go. Do the obvious things like engine mounts and rack bushes (if required) as Simmo said. If you upgrade your turbos your looking at big dollars.

 

Replace the 2 Fuel hoses down near the passenger side chassis rail.

They are almost impossible to do with the engine still in.

 

New engine

so i am getting engine which has done 89km's and mine had done 147 kms' so i guess its better engine right?? or the speedo reading come from somewhere else?? :bash:

Hydrolic pumb leak is cost $400 to replace. and its just power stearing oil so as long as i am topping it up it shuould be ok i guess????

any ways to clean the 02 sensors??
