@Ragingfit That's actually my thought as well. My EGR was effectively 100% blocked when I disassembled the original engine. Had I not already had...
Lol. Italian tune-up is scarily accurate. :). Yeah, 32 pages deep I can imagine it's hard to keep up. I actually have a Ryobi 18v impact wrench...
Sure, after completing my swap I had a horrendous noise whenever the ICE fired up that sounded like rod knock. Very loud clanking and banging,...
Hey all, just completed my cold morning startup test and the car is running great! Noise is gone, cooling is working and engine is smooth. Just...
Once again, I'm no expert, so if anyone more knowledgeable chimes in, take their advice. But my understanding is that it's as simple as making...
Did you verify the new stat has that pin? I'd be 100% sure before opening it up. Remember I'm just learning and repeating info from here.
Page 23 seems to be where that info was. Assumed this was standard on all gen4 engines. Here's some of the info.
Sorry about that. I didn't open my thermostat on either engine, so just went off of the info earlier in the thread. Assumed that was standard.
If you go back through the last few pages, there was a guy struggling with cooling and at one point i believe he drilled out the jiggle pin which...
I'm no expert, which should be painfully obvious. But here's the things I've seen mentioned regarding cooling. Did you use the Gen 4 water pump?...
Oh, I think I just fixed it! Used the old school technique of throwing it in Sport mode and literally driving the crap out of it for 20 minutes as...
Ok. I think I'm going to take this to the local mechanic. I've checked every wire and had it running for about 30 minutes in the garage just now....
Totally agree and looking at all possible causes before pulling the engine. With the swap I also kept the gen4 stuff, so swapped plugs, coil packs...
Ah, I'll reach in and check, but considering I just swapped the damper onto the gen 4 engine, I'm not expecting to find anything as it looked fine...
Yes, damper, that's what I believe it to be. Though there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of info on the internet about this, so I could be...
Well, good news very bad news. :(. Engine is running, but there appears to be a larger issue that might have been the actual issue this entire...
Could be! I just noticed it while cleaning up tonight and it looked like a vent of some kind. Watched the videos and Raging even had his hand on...
If these were for sale a week ago, I definitely would have bought one from you.
Just about wrapped up. Should have it running tomorrow, fingers crossed. One last question. There's a black nipple on the front left of the...
Thanks for the reply Ragingfit. I'm just going to go with the hose you recommend and everyone else is using. It works and that's all that matters....
