The MP3 is running pretty well now, so I've moved on to the MSP. I've pulled the engine and torn it completely down. No surprise that the head gasket was totally blown. Even some rust on one person and on one cylinder wall. I'm taking that to the machine shop to see if it's salvageable. It also had some rust on the lobes of the cams, still I'm taking them in too along with the head. I also saw it had a bent rod.
First real question though: how do you remove the oil squirters? I had never seen them in an engine before, and made the mistake of trying to turn them out. Now they are definitely messed up (i think they were bad already though) but i couldn't get them out.
My second set of questions is all about the turbo setup. I took a bunch of pictures and spentalot of time looking, but i don't think it was all attached correctly. I'm also not sure it's the original engine with the windage tray. It does haveone oil line attached to the windage tray just under the turbo, but the it had the donut connector under the oil filter as well. Is that right?
Then it looks to me like a coolant line was connected to the oil donut. I'm thinking that can't be right. Then the braided line (which i thought was an oil line seemed to be on a t fitting where what i think the temperature sensor is, instead of the oil donut like i thought it should be.
I'll try and post some pictures from my phone to help show the connections. I'll admit I've never done anything turbo before, and I'm excited to learn.
The turbo had 4 lines coming out. I'm assuming that's oil in, oil out, coolant in, coolant out. Is that right?
