ok one day i was in traffic, the car did not over heat but the motor cut off, didnt know why, so i took the motor out cuz it was my first time and i had time at that point, so the motor had been sitting out for like 3 months with no fluids obviously in it, and when i crank it over one of the apex seals looks in perfect condition but i dont hear the suction as much in it, could it be that the apex seal is stuck inside the rotor and needs to be oiled up a lil

 

did you do a compression test or anything before you pulled the ENGINE ! Did it start back up after it died? What made you think the best course of action was to pull the engine?

 

i wanted to just do it cuz the car has been sitting for years and i wanted to do it cuz i was going to get it rebuilt and ported but other things came up

 

Ahhhh! Well then, if you were going to rebuild anyway.... get a reman and send it to someone(pineapple,kdr, Gotham?{heard good things about Steve Kan}) Or do it yourself and feel the pride of building your own engine. Just check ALL the systems for proper operation before running the new engine.( oil pump{should be new on new engine, cooling system, etc...) Wasn't bashing ya. just curiouse as to the big move of yanking the guts out. I just did the same thing to a customers - the rebuild and porting. Haha! That comes later!! Talk to Ray Crowe at Malloy Mazda for the reman engine 1-888-533-3400
