Self Rebuild...

I'm going to attempt to rebuild my '90 N/A 13b, and I need a few pointers. I already have the Haynes manual, and I am wondering if I should purchase the "13B Rebuild VHS Tape" from www.AtkinsRotary.com. Has anybody seen this video before, and would it be a good purchase? Also, I don't want to have to replace anything that doesn't absolutely need replacing ( just trying to be cost efficient ) so is there any suggestions of places that will give me a good deal on individual rebuild parts (other than Atkins Rotary)? Any help with these subject, or tips in general would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
XxMaCaBrExX

I've never seen the movie but I've heard nothing but great things about it. I am planning on buying it myself.

GET IT!

By all means, get the video.

If that is Bruce Turrentine's video, it is
excellent. I own it. I'm using it to help
me rebuild my TII right now. An invaluable
help. Worth every penny.

If its not Bruce's video, get both - you can't get enough good advice, IMHO. Do a search on Bruce's name, he has a copy for sale through one of the rotary aviation sites.

Good luck,

Steve C.

I bought Bruce's video also...it is great.

I ended up not rebuilding my engine though... I found buying a factory rebuild from the dealer in Canada was only a couple hundered bucks more than just buying the rebuild parts.

Because I wasn't going to port my engine, and the only mod I wanted to do was replace the oil regulator pelet with the Mazdatrix solid eliminator I just went with the ready to go engine.
