Ok I am getting my new motor on Wendsday. Well its new to me. Anyways it has not been run in a while and this is my last chance at getting my GTU back on the road. It is a pretty much stock s4 NA motor. I have started piston motors that have set for ungodly eriods of time. I just want to do it right and not go back to where I was. I have been prepping all of my parts for about 3 days now. All I have to do is put all of my old stuff on the motor. Oil lines water pump intakes ect.

The motor wont be here until wendsday but i want to get all of the stuff in advance. I am hoping to get the motor in the car and put together and start it about 9pm that night. Like I said I am very anxious. It will be here around noon. Is this possible in one day or should I let some ATF sit in the motor overnight.

 

Just put some motor oil in the in engine via L spark plug hole, spin it around a few times and you should be fine.

 

wouldn't you need a s4 harness or s4 sensors maybe at least?? correct me if i'm wrong but aren't some sensors different for the different motors, or at least for different manifolds (tps for one)?? maybe i'm crazy...

 

Its going in an s4 car, my 88 GTU i got the good one not the crappy GTU
