Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project nope, bigends are the *big ends* of the con rods,,, small ends are the piston gudeon pin. main bearings are the ones that hold the crank to the block

Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project yep spun bigend thats what i thought,,, rod will be nackered (will need bore gauging and poss reclaiming) (they take a layer off the flat surface of the main cap, then rebore the journal) crank grinding then oversize bearings,, and thats if you can find them,, which...

out of curiosity who do you source those from mate? pm if you like,, after a quality alternative to oe..

not enough to notice

imo unless you are doing it properly like markcup etc and ripping the lot out its not worth it i had the back of mine stripped for ages and the fact that you cant talk to anybody at 70 the fact it ices up in the morning etc its just not worth it put all the interior back in now,, it made no...

mine lacks sensitivity since repositioning it in the skip i find.

where does the temp gauge sit may be thermostat stuck open and overcooling,,, can you get it to warm up if you sit revving it?? or going the other way,, if you were to leave it sit with the bonnet shut would it overheat?? heater wont work if the waterpump isn't pumping ie impeller not spinning...

yeah think it had stripes didnt see the exhaust,, will have to throw a flyer at her next time we see her

Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project and no the head or pistons dont have to come out to get the crank out.. just sump and gearbox.

Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project it wont be bent valves, would still turn over... it may lock going one way but you'd be able to turn it backwards free enough. 100% not that if it wont turn at all. its pretty fecking seized if it snapped the crank bolt. i think its spun a big end bearing, didnt the...
