Put the new MAF in and was resetting idle when I gave it a shot of gas to rev and settle when I looked in the mirror and white sweet smoke was blowing. Fuck. Another heax gasket. Oh well at least it is easier to do then the civic was. No timing belt, no crank pully. Just a chain, cam sprocket and head. Will do it when I get back from barber. Ill order the parts and pick em up on the way home and save the tax.
Re: Nissan engine dont need help now its the head gasket.
LOL funny guys, yep the gasket showed it's ugly head when revving to reset idle. Parts are coming and Friday and Sat of this weekend will be used up doing the damn head gasket. If I wasn't able to do this for less then 200 bucks I'd have gotten rid of the thing but when the cost is all labour, I can't justify not doing it.
Re: Nissan engine dont need help now its the head gasket.
LOL, Civic is being inspected right now so it should be good to go for the next 6 months or more. this I need to get done before Barber so Jill can get to work while I am away. I also have to put a new starter in the GL and set the timing and probably change the oil too. No pressure. ;D
yep. was shipped minutes after paypal cleared and arrived next day, I'll use em again if need be in future for sure. Thanks Again for the link, was the best deal on a starter, I was looking before you sent it and couldn't find any for less than $100 shipped like that one was. To bad US-CAN exchange went shitty and it is a little over 100 CAD now, but better then the 250-300 I was being quoted for one already in Canada.
Re: Nissan engine dont need help now its the head gasket.
Well got the head off last night, gasket is bad signs of coolant in 2 of 4 cylinders. Cleanup and new gasket today. Pics later if I think of it. Just had a big breakfast going to be a long day. Only good part is the old gasket left almost no residue on block or head
thanks Murray, did everything but spray so far. Got to go buy rtv as my tube from last job walked away. I'll get the spray too. Anything to not do this again in 60k lol. I tried to post pics but didn't work. Think internet is off today due to weather. Satalite internet sucks
