there is a possibility that it was just flooded. if he started it to move it and then shut it off without letting the engine warmup these things will flood almost everytime. kinda hard to say with the front cover off though best you could do is run a compression test to make sure it's not blown

looks like you'll need a front cover gasket and the water pump housing gasket, oil metering pump oring (only if damaged), the front cover oil pump bypass oring and white plastic spacer, correct me if i'm wrong (anybody) but i believe there are supposed to be 2 thin metal shims for 2 of the water pump housing studs.

You are right sir and also a NEW front main seal for the front cover it's off already. I will look into your oil pan as well, do you have the air flow meter did not see it in the pics! P.S. A good battery something with high CCA - 700 or more take your time and get done right good luck. |
