Thread: Non LR HELP!

Will the engine still crank with the key???
If it will put a socket on the bolt and breaker bar and wedge it against the chassis the way it wants to rotate.A quick turn of the key will loosen it(pays to disconect diesel solenoid so it wont start)
It does work as I had the pleasure several times in TRYTOO ownership.
Goodluck
Andrew

Hi Edd
Is it a keeper???
If so,do you know you can buy brand new complete crate motors(inc turbo,fan,alternator etc) for around $4500!!!
They are built by hyundai(they bought the licence) and have a higher power output than mitsi had.
I will see if I can find the importer.

Yes the car is supposed to be the wifes car for as long as possible. It does have 400,000km on it so it has done a lot but having just spent $1200 in parts to then get this is a real kicker.
I didn't know about the new new engines.

Edd I dont have a copy of 4x4 Trader to look the add up,tried a quick google but no luck.
If you do get a S/H import pay a little more and get the intercooled version,you will need to cut a hole in the bonnet and fit a GU style scoop.They go quite well.

Already has one without the scoop.
The vehicle is right on the model change over has parts from two models fitted. PITA when buying spares as sometimes they don't fit.

Edd,
Just sent you a PM.

Andrew.

Had another thought on how to get that bolt out

You can buy a spray can of "freeze" ... (dry ice in a can)
Warm up the crank .... then freeze the bolt .... then give it a yank

Make sure you don't get freeze on the crank

This method should open the crank & shrink the bolt


Mike

For those interested the timing has been redone and the harmonic balance is off. Just have to get the rest of the broken bolt out next.
