Well my engine is leaking from alot of places right now, Not huge leaks but i do have to replace alot of seals, also there is oil inside my timing cover and the timing belt needs to be changed....So who here has rebuilt the 5S? I see the price to replace everything in my engine will be the cheapest way for me doing it myself, i just cant afford a mechanic right now...BUT the only thing holding me back is my lack of knowledge at this point. I am pretty determined and would love to do this task, but how difficult will this be? Thanks..

Why waste money on a 260k engine. Either do a full rebuild or dont spend a dime on it.
You can rering it, but you will probably need it overbored with oversize pistons and rings. Align boring and bearings for sure. Water pump, oil pump. Have the cylinderhead checked by a shop, rebuild it as necessary. You need to replace the clutch, either motormount if they are worn. New timing belt of course. Replace all the vacuum lines while you have it apart. |
