Put it all back together

[Ruan]

That head is scrap - severely cracked, only a matter of time before you're into a water way.

Out of interested just how much smoke did this engine blow and how many top speed runs did you do? That entire engine looks very, very worn - the top of the pistons above the rings looks worn also.

Also, it looks like the bloody valve seat is about to fall out! Check out the cracks around them!!!

[Piggy]

I thought that about the top of the pistons....bet piston slap is bad

[akuma406]

I brought the butt and effectively, cracks in cylinder head means that I have your life will be short.
Cracks precombustion chambers tops have no problems, Yes the cylinder head.
Cylinder head goes for scrap, to look for another.

The top of the piston is black and grating is coal, not metal grated. If you refer to that?
I'll clean with a brush and then put some pictures, and I contades your opinion.
I see few engines open as know what is new and how much spent.
So I need your help.
And be grateful to of you

My second yoke. . . . also broken. . .

And when I go to mount the rod caps. . . . . more problems. . .
Brand are Glyco. . . .

The glyco has marks all on the same side.
The std, have opposite brands. . .
Any comments?

[akuma406]

Well, my work is progressing slowly.
I got another head, this is healthy.
So work a bit ports.
Grinding valves.
Shells connecting rods placed.
Correct piston segments, only 0.25mm space.

Nice work pal!

Did you get the head skimmed in the end?

[akuma406]

Hello Piggy, no, the butt is fine, so I do not was machined.
The cylinder head gasket is the number 4

[Piggy]

I dont want to know anything about your butt!!!

I would seriously reccomend getting it skimmed and getting those cups pinned in as one looks like its turned which isnt good

[akuma406]

Piggy, told me that the head was fine, and that new cups will soon again be the same. . .
Now is mounted, and'll prove that.
Learn from the mistakes, if broken. . .
To see what happens. . .

[Toms306]

What does the translator think butt means?

[Poodle]

It'll be americanised, so "bottom", ie the underside of the head.

That precup looks like its rotated quite a bit, definitely get that sorted, be a shame to waste all this hard work. Also iirc the cut outs on the xud shells go on opposite sides.

[akuma406]

Well, I'm sorry I discussed with mechanized man. Hopefully not dea problems the new engine.
Nor do I have as much power as Piggy.
I will try to make it as more reliable as possible.

Here in Spain, the PSA cars are considered trash, bad, and old XUD, scrap metal, nobody takes you seriously and no help.
Here you have a car VAG (seat, audi, volkswagen) and it is like anciently having a mercedes. have the best car and better engines.
If you have a psa or renault, you have scrap. . .

Then I only work with the help of forums and people like you, and not always the translation is good or arrive on time, before committing errors. . . sorry
I know you know better than I what is good or bad. . .

Also, thanks colleagues

A doubt, the filter that is in line turbo lubrication is to out, was very ill and broken. Grease line without filter is mounted turbo, or you need to place another?
Somewhere where selling?

[Piggy]

turbo oil line filter shouldnt be needed buddy.

Looking nice and tidy by the way

got lots of space behind the engine in the 406 engine bay I assume?

[akuma406]

Well that metal bar simulates the car chassis, this just turbo, till the engine is mounted in the car, I am not sure that it goes to 100x100.

[akuma406]

line filter oiling fact turbo


It supports the turbo, be enough?

one way to sort an engine^

[Poodle]

Looking good! How long before she starts?

[bashbarnard]

How on earth have you fitted that turbo down the back? Is there enough room?

---

Also take the front end off the car. You would find it so much easier getting engine in and out

[akuma406]

good engine to power with ease, good sound and good response.
The turbo goes smoothly on the 406, and if the turbo down a bit, grabs a much greater.
The engine with the inclination goes well in the 406. I did not put the crib.

[akuma406]

Downpipe made. Grinding a weld failure.

The catalyst has suppressant inside, but I have to have it to spend the itv visual.
I have to isolate heat from the downpipe, and thought about putting asbestos tape to exhaust but end up coming out cracks hear that?
You who think of the tape in Inox downpipe?

[Piggy]

good pipe that
the original is rather restrictive

can you remove the insides from the cat??

wrap it is fine, just ensure you seal it too so no fires!

[akuma406]

cat remove

[205dtub]

Keep at it! Noone takes me seriously about mine either but there's method in the madness!!

[akuma406]

Bueno chicos del coche este paseo, pero todavía no hay presión de turbo, tengo que montar el Arduino.
También montado barras estabilizadoras y un v6, que son más gordos y se nota más firme, menos a la rodadura.
Necesito trabajar enfriador de aceite de ventilación. . .
