Hello guys I have just get an ST205 that has been sitting for 6 years. I assume the reason was put aside is the clutch is in bad condition. Before remove the engine and transmission what you guys suggest to have in mind. I 've never had a car that was sitting for so long period of time therefore I need some ideas as to what parts I must have before pulling everything apart. Mainly engine components.
I know I should have: timing belt 2 inner tensioners and the hydraulic one cam seals crankshaft seals front and rear Oil pump seals and gasket thermostat water pump perhaps I will need the valve cover gasket as well alternator -air con belt and tensioner power steering pump, tensioner gearbox and transfer box seals release bearing clutch-pressure plate The engine will be removed from the car therefore I want to change possible causes that may cause issues, especially those which are located in hard to reach areas and would be a pain to be replaced when the engine and transmission is back on the car. Thank you in advance, and looking forward for you suggestions. |

Since I m a noob in st205 can anyone suggest oils to run in gearbox/transferbox and the rear diff?
I was considering getting them from toyota, but surely toyota must get them from somewere else and sell them under their name. Not looking to cheap out, but I have so many expenses that finding equivalent quality to oem products might help at least getting the car to the road and go for a respray. If not then I will be going with the products provided by toyota dealer. |
