JDM TT Engine, Been sitting four years

Post by **Stryker14** » Wed Jan 14, 2015 3:18 pm

Yes I bought this JDM TT Engine, it has been in a storage unit for four years.

What to do with it before putting it into my Convertible?

Just a timing belt change, cam seals and the usual deletes? Of should I get a seal and gasket kit and take it back to the block?

Opinions appreciated!

I'd do a full seal kit. Maybe not all the way to the block, as HG's don't have a tendency to break down, but if you have the means and the engine is already out of the car....

^^^ agreed 100%, sooooo easy with the engine already out. The best couple hundred dollars you'll ever spend on a Z32.

Also, pour about a table spoon of ATF into each cylinder and crank the engine a few times by hand. This will help clean and loosen up any crud that been sitting in there.
