things fail most often when not in use, keep that in mind.

 

yeah lol
well the cars down at Itos shop, he had todo a few things before he can work onit so I came back home and he'll call me when he starts it.
its great only being only 15min away

 

keep us updated!!

 

nice.

 

well supposedly itll be done today.. but Im gonna be in Brooklyn all day at the brewery getting wasted so no go for me today... tomworrow I hope to be putting miles on like wow

 

hows it running????

 

^ +1

 

it not.. i think i have a stuck apex seal in the rear
compressions a 100 in the front and 50ish in the rear 1 face has good compression.
ito and i are gonna try to start it this morning and let it idle to see if itll work its way out if not i have 2 weeks before surgrey and u bet ur *** itlle be fixed by then..
and my dp dp cost me way more then expected i am beyond depressed...

 

man that sucks, hopefully itll loosen itself up!
i got about 100 psi compresson as well cold. i have 380 miles on it now but my starter is starting to take a crap :/

 

Tha's lame. Maybe it will be ok after it gets osme run time. parts are in the mail BTW

 

if you had really tight clearances they may take some driving to loosen up, also if
you crazy glued the side piece of the apex seal it also may not break-off immediately.

These have all happened to me in the past but were easy fixes

 

Well pulled an all nighter and pulled the whole thing again tore it apart to find the glue on 2 of the seals never broke... They decided let go after I hand turned the motor for 2 seconds they release with loud snaps...
I rechecked everything.. Reassembled and reinstalled last night..
This morning I Compression checked it and it pulled 115 on the front and 135 in the rear...
Reassembled and filled everything.. then Brap Brap she went I had it running for 45 min and have started and shut it off numbers times it idles at 1500 it needs some tuning but it revs perfectly.. I also drove it around the lot It was an awsome feeling more tomorrow

 

CONGRATS!!!!!! After hearing that I'm tempted to get rid of the super glue on the seals I have waiting to go into my build.....

Congrats!
I don't remember using any glue to hold in the little corners... just petroleum jelly...

 

well guys insurance was good on the car as of 1201 this morning me and my buddy went night rider and put 100miles on it.. runs pretty well
here some pix i shot recently

 

and the 2 everyones been waiting for... this was before the motor have even been started... Im sure its even better now...
the rears higher

 

congrats finally!

 

Amazing compression on your first build!!!!!

More people should post compression #s when they do rebuilds.

 

get a vid of it running =)

 

Well got just under 300 miles on it... Would have had more but.....
Only me... leaving my house in Pa got 5 miles down the dirt road and im guessing I lost an injector it started running on one rotor I limped it back home.. Took my dads truck 45 minutes to Scranton for the closest uhual. To rent theyre last tow dolly and am gonna tow it back home...
That motors fine... looking at my afr it's real lean... Idk if it's an injector or wiring, but the injectors were just cleaned and flow tested.. I feel like it's a bad connection in the harness t and r made me I guess I'll be remaking make harness...
What u guys think?

 

how lean is it? u sure u have no fuel leaks or low fuel pressure?
look at plugs and see if one is soaked compared to the other.

 

Check coils, especially the leading.

 

depending on how bumpy that dirt road was, it wouldve loosen a connection somewhere for the injector.

 

Soo I got some time to look at it first thing I did was pull the plugs found the fronts wet and the rears dry.. Though I might have fouled the plugs still wanted to compression test it to make sure the engines good in 258 miles my compression on both rotors have risen 5psi.. cleaned the trailing plugs and put in a new set of leading it fired right up... I think she just really needs a good tune

When I get back from bonneroo and pay my Ito bill its time to let the Man himself tune it
