Re: Projekt G23[Hold] | [Current] Euro r H22A

Time to pull the engine out again and see what went wrong. Should be ready to
come out this week.

 

[TheEdge]

Installed f23a head gasket. Better than h22a head gasket at covering oil holes in the block and fits the cylinder chamber perfectly.

 

[TheEdge]

Ordered two pins from ebay for blocking the oil passages on the front of the engine. No need to install plug or mess with the cylinder head.

Installed with lot of lube and patience.

 

[TheEdge]

Placing the f23a gasket on the cylinder head. Rear holes line up perfect but the front get's cut off earlier but its fine. H22a gasket will leave a small portion unblocked as was posted earlier in the thread.

 

[TheEdge]

Cylinder head placed on the block.

Left front blocked oil passage.

Right front blocked oil passage.

Middle gasket area.

View of blocked passages from the top of the engine.

 

[TheEdge]

Torqued the head bolts to 80 ft lbs. Installed the timing belt.

 

[TheEdge]

Compression test results(before valve adjustment):

1,2,3,4 = 225psi, 235 psi, 255psi, 255 psi

So I started the engine with stock jdm ecu. Does anyone know the cause for this sound?

 

[Roadrage]

sounds like you have something lose....not torqued right perhaps.
