my engine is old, and i am toying withthe idea of rebuilding an engine for it.

Never have before and still really really new to cars

is there a good thread or tutorial that I can't find on this?

like i am thinking that chaning the o rings and what not is easy, maybe even polishing th erotor housings is something i could do... even porting them.doesnt look too hard

but i am thinkign that the rotors are tricky and probably best to get the rotor seels placed and then fitted to the rotor housings by a professional?

but then maybe thats the bulk of the rebuild there both in terms of complexity time and money

all i am asking is i wantot do this has anyone written down how to go about it already? or am i on my own, get the haynses book and post as questions come to me ?P)

 

I think mazdatrix or someone sells a video that goes over rebuilding. I have heard they are very helpfull...

 

www.atkinsrotoary.com has a rebuild video for sale

 

althought i didnt see the video i saw the rebuild kidts

and they are from 800+ to 240+ each


i was htinking the 240 buck one of new gaskets and seals would be all i needed, whats the o ring springs and stuff?

 

the springs are for the rotors and i am assuming that the o-rings you talk of are the internal coolant seals.

 

i get it now i was going to get the housings apart anfd then price out a professional to fit the rotors anyway


expecially if its going to be close in price

this forum rocks thank you to eveyrone for anseering even teh stupidest of questions
