okay was about to unbolt everything, but i wanted one last try. I pushed the starter button and it cranks!? 3 days ago it was jammed, i thought my engine was seized. I started the engine and reved it to 3.5 for 20 seconds, then let it go it idled at 1700..Weird..I drove it and it over heated in less than one minute of driving, took it back on my driveway and it was boiling hot in the ccollant overflow tank, and engine was overheating too.
i dont get it???? |
check your thermostat and change your radiator cap,
same thing happened to me, turned out my radiator cap spring was fucked, which cause the car to over heat and coolant to over flow from the resevour. |
maybe go back to mechanical fan, did ur electric come on?
|
i changed the rad cap, didnt help. It really does get hot even just idling there. The rad. hoses expand! Also the engine seems slugish when you rev or slow . Do you think if i get a s4 t2 afm itl help? Im using a s4 na one n318...
burned my arm.... |
im gunna try what charlie said, proably air pocket in the motor...bleed the air out
|
If your rad hoses are swelling replace them.
|
Jumper the initial set coupler and get a timing light on there!
Seriously if your car starts the compression is good enough, sluggish performance is either a fueling or ignition timing problem. Easiest thing to make sure is right first is the timing! |
i got the air pockets out, but still overheats quick...Acid angel says it could be the coolant seals busted...going to tear the motor apart tmrw and just start all over again..
|
wow. that sucks. so much work.
|
damn ey dk hit me up!
|
alrite pulled the motor today..Just abit lazy right now to open her up...
|
shes open. Looks like Acid angels hunch was correct, all but one inner water seal blew causing my engine to overheat. Maybe my water pump is bad causing this.. all the apex seals are still good, housing rotors.. A few corner seal springs seem flat almost lol,perhaps cauing me to loose compression. Before opening her, I turned the flywheel, and it sounded good, pshhhhwaaahh sound...ALot more than when I first built the engine.. I ordered the new rebuild gasket set, so for now just cleaning the parts.. acid angle might hook it up with the carbon apex seals...

did you jus spray bomb it? lol
is that even safe for ur altenator??? that drifter ego is kickin in!! haha im messin man |
I need to get another can of that red... Do a few more coats to dress it up..
|
lol I dont know.. I got too spray happy. Im sure itl still work fine. If it doesnt I have a spare alt. Im going to port out the manifolds next along with the TB mod.. I also found the $30 greddy compresion tube knockoff. Its from sniperracing on ebay, I ordered it, hopefuly theyll ship it fast..
|

dk - I'm sure your parents would appreciate it if you used some of this http://www.pour-n-restore.com/ on your driveway/garage after you've finished with your build. :) |
just came back from mazdatrix.. Ibought aused e shaft, hardened front stationary gear with good condition bearings, and a bearing plate..
|
EY DK paint my housings for me!!?!?!?
before i finish my rebuild!??! lol LOOKS FUCKING SICK!!!! |
gotta love socal...when ever you need something for your rotary just drive down to mazdatrix and you ar at home..lol
so are we replacing everything on it dk or just the basics to get u running again |
just the basics and w/e I can afford. If I had money I would get new housings and a whole new master rebuild kit and bearings.. but eh..
Mazdatrix said my engine seized because I had no endplay, causing my front bearings to collapse. I had replace front bearing plate, front staionary gear,bearing, needle bearing, and the e shaft. Got all that for $140 from mazdatrix :) Good people there:)Learned something new and iimportant. I really want new springs, because last time I used used springs and that could be a reason why my engine was low compression. |
ey DK i might have the springs off my t2 build
|
ehh it will get you by but if you can hold off just a tad longer and get all the springs you will be set with solid motor...all your hard seals are low miles right
|
yes sir, seals are in goodshape. The bads are the springs
|
okay New side seal springs, 93+ fd corner seal springs, hardened front staionary gear with bearing from mazdatrix, eshaft from mazdatrix, new bearing plate, new k spacer, new gasket set w/waterseals, and front and rear main seals..
spent about $300 on eevrything here.. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...k/P1020335.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...k/P1020336.jpg |
ported the TB. I still need to buy jb weld to remove the first pair of flappers[w/e u call em] then ill port it more... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...k/P1020340.jpg
|
|
I cleaned up eevrything today, and its ready for assembly. Acid angel is coming down tomarrow to make sure this time its built right!!
|
I wonder what kind of power its going to put out .. These exhaust ports are big to me... But to acid angel they are small. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...k/P1020322.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...k/P1020315.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...k/P1020320.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...k/P1020324.jpg
cant wait !! |
probably not a good idea to have painted over the gasket surfaces
|
ey dk, i have jb weld, you should of told me when you came over foo...
you can have it ! |
yo holla at me... you need to remove the flappers, and trim some of the metal out and then shave it
do it extreme like this http://www.rotaryheads.com/pics/porting/tb-finished.jpg Then when you put it together, you gotta do the TPS adjustments with a multimeter to correct the idle and all will be good. |
Are you really going to use those rotor housings?
Once it is all put together I want to start a timebomb countdown hehehe J/k I hope this engine works out for you. |
